Case Study: Somerset Tire Service achieves operational efficiency and inventory accuracy with Royal 4 Systems' WISE Tire Warehouse Manager

Somerset - Customer Case Study

Somerset Tire Service (Somerset), the largest independent tire and automotive service company in the Northeast, needed an affordable technology solution to drive operational efficiencies, improve inventory control and reduce costs across its multi‑location distribution and retail network. After a multi‑month evaluation, Somerset selected Royal 4 Systems’ WISE Tire Warehouse Manager (WISE TMS) to address issues like tire tracking, storage optimization, FIFO dating, and future POS/ERP/logistics integrations.

Royal 4 Systems implemented WISE to track tires from receipt, direct put‑away to the most efficient storage locations, guide pickers to strategic retrieval areas using FIFO rules, and stage loads at specific docks for faster, more accurate shipping. The deployment delivered immediate warehouse efficiencies, improved inventory accuracy, reduced guesswork in order picking and tire dating, and—according to Royal 4 Systems—realized significant ROI “within the four walls” while enabling faster customer response times, higher productivity and lower operational costs when integrated with POS and routing systems.
