Case Study: Tyco achieves 36% warehouse cost reduction and 99% on-time shipments with Blue Yonder Warehouse Management

Tyco Leverages Blue Yonder’s Warehouse Solutions to Optimize Its Distribution Center Operations

Tyco, a global leader in fire protection and security with over $10 billion in annual revenue and 57,000+ employees, sought to bring outsourced, manual distribution operations in-house to achieve standardized, high‑velocity fulfillment. Facing multiple ERP environments and a tight implementation timeline, Tyco needed a robust warehouse management solution that could be deployed quickly and drive consistent, efficient processes across its DCs.

Tyco implemented JDA’s Warehouse Management suite (including JDA Parcel and Warehouse Labor Management) with JDA consulting, education and support, and built two automated DCs using RF and conveyor technology. The integrated solution standardized workflows, improved visibility and enabled value‑added services—delivering a 36% reduction in warehouse costs, 99% on‑time shipments, 14% improvement in inventory accuracy, a 100% increase in lines shipped per hour, and a 1% uplift in shipment quality.
