Case Study: Kenco achieves automated, system-directed healthcare fulfillment and faster replenishment with Blue Yonder Warehouse Management

Kenco Helps Healthcare Provide Better Outcomes

Kenco, a leading family-owned 3PL serving healthcare and other verticals, faced a healthcare customer using outdated warehouse technology that relied on manual workarounds, caused pick-line downtime, and lacked emergency replenishment and lot-allocation flexibility. The legacy system forced unnecessary product moves and limited the customer’s ability to fill orders rapidly and cost-effectively.

By implementing Blue Yonder’s warehouse management solution, Kenco introduced system-directed picking, dynamic primary pick locations, and automated emergency replenishment, eliminating manual processes and wasted moves. The project went live in nine months with full shipping volumes within two weeks, increased productivity, supported customer growth, and equipped Kenco’s team with the skills to deploy the solution for future accounts.
