Case Study: Arnold Oil Company of Austin achieves $200K annual savings and 24-hour receiving with Epicor Indago WMS

Leverages cutting-edge Epicor technology to help manage critical processes

Arnold Oil Company of Austin is a leading independent automotive wholesale distributor in South-Central Texas with 30 stores and 325 employees. Facing intense competition from big-box chains and the need to control costs, the company needed faster, more accurate processes—particularly reducing the time it takes to move parts from the receiving dock to warehouse shelves.

Arnold Oil migrated from Epicor TPW to the Indago Warehouse Management System (integrated with Epicor Ultimate) and deployed mobile barcode scanning, dock-to-stock tracking, and color‑coded order prioritization. The solution cut large-order receiving from 4–5 days to about 24 hours, enabled leaner inventory management, improved order accuracy and speed to shelf, and delivered roughly $200,000 in annual savings.
