Case Study: BAE Systems achieves reduced warehousing and fulfillment costs with Saddle Creek Logistics Services

BAE Systems - Customer Case Study

BAE Systems, a global defense and security company, needed to reduce escalating labor and facility costs while maintaining strict quality and control for its ISO-certified F-16 avionics test station program. The company turned to Saddle Creek Logistics Services for complete warehousing and fulfillment support, including stocking 18,000 items, inbound quality control inspection, and production fulfillment services.

Saddle Creek Logistics Services built a dedicated warehouse area with temperature, humidity, and ESD controls, supported by automated carousels and pick-to-light processes, and integrated directly with BAE’s systems for inventory management and QC. The solution dramatically reduced warehousing and fulfillment costs while consistently meeting BAE’s quality requirements, and Saddle Creek earned BAE’s small business subcontractor of the year award and remained a key supply partner for more than ten years.
