Case Study: Midwest Wheel achieves operational efficiency and real-time insights with Infor Birst

Midwest Wheel increases operational efficiency with Infor CloudSuite Distribution

Midwest Wheel, a fifth‑generation, family‑owned truck parts distributor founded in 1911 and headquartered in Des Moines with six locations across Iowa and Missouri, faced growing operational complexity as it scaled. Outdated systems and manual processes made it difficult to manage inventory across warehouses, maintain daily delivery coverage for all customers, and gain the data visibility needed to reduce errors and improve service.

Midwest Wheel implemented Infor CloudSuite Distribution with Total Warehouse Logistics, Birst and Infor OS to create a fully integrated digital platform. The new system automated workflows and alerts, improved put‑away, picking and delivery accuracy, eliminated many custom modifications, and delivered real‑time dashboards for better forecasting—resulting in significantly fewer errors, higher productivity, and improved customer service.
