Case Study: Tennsco achieves automated inter-site shipments and real-time inventory visibility with Radley, LLC

Inter‐site Shipments Solved Tennsco Replaces Homegrown Shop Floor System with Radley MES

Tennsco, a family‑owned manufacturer of steel storage products with eight plants in Dickson, TN, faced limitations with a homegrown ERP and shop‑floor system that couldn’t scale: inter‑site movement of container/license plates lacked verification and traceability, serial label printing was manual, and IFS Applications could not handle container transfers. To fill these gaps Tennsco engaged Radley, LLC to provide an MES and labeling solution.

Radley, LLC implemented its MES and IntelliLabel technology, loading Tennsco’s legacy serial database (avoiding relabeling nearly 1 million license plates), automating shop‑floor and warehouse transactions, and integrating with IFS for SSCC‑compliant labeling and one‑scan receiving. The solution delivered real‑time inventory visibility across eight facilities, eliminated manual data entry and label printing, streamlined shipping/receiving, and made IFS the single system of record—boosting productivity and traceability.
