Case Study: Wausau Supply achieves 30% cost reduction and 30% productivity gains with Infor Distribution SX.e (Infor)

Wausau Supply cuts costs 30% with Infor Distribution SX.e

Wausau Supply is a Midwest distributor of name‑brand building materials serving lumber yards and growing buying groups from 11 distribution centers and six light manufacturing plants. Facing increased competition from big‑box retailers and a strategic shift toward value‑added, customized products, the company needed better inventory visibility and a modern back‑office/logistics system to preserve next‑day delivery and profitability.

Wausau implemented Infor Distribution SX.e with Total Warehouse Logistics and an RBC configurator to centralize buying and customer service, optimize inventory across locations, and support light manufacturing. The solution improved fulfillment and control, reduced costs and increased productivity by about 30%, and helped the company expand market share and achieve record months at key locations.
