A Microsoft Corporation Case Study
Vincennes University's Logistics Training and Education Center (VULTEC) needed a modern system to provide its students with relevant, hands-on logistics training. Their paper-based and spreadsheet-driven processes were inefficient, causing slow operations and failing to prepare students for industry-standard work. To solve this, they partnered with Microsoft Corporation to implement the Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 Advanced Warehouse Management System.
The solution from Microsoft streamlined VULTEC's warehouse operations, replacing manual methods with automated processes using RF guns and forklifts. This resulted in a dramatic increase in productivity; processing time was reduced from one week for a single truckload to less than one week for six truckloads. Most importantly, the implementation provided students with invaluable real-world experience using the same technology they will encounter in their logistics careers.
