A Shockoe Case Study
Arrow Electronics, one of the world's largest electronic components distributors, faced a challenge in its warehouse operations. Its staff and scanners needed to work in perfect lockstep with the warehouse management system, requiring tools that fit the way they pick and move stock and that allowed leads to make decisions directly from the floor. Shockoe was engaged to address this need.
Shockoe designed and built two Android tablet apps: CORE for warehouse operators and APEX for leads and supervisors. The apps integrated with Arrow's existing systems, supported offline use, and paired with handheld devices. This solution delivered a 4%+ efficiency gain, improved order fulfillment accuracy, and reduced support call volume. Shockoe continues to support both apps, which are now running across all of Arrow's 30+ distribution centers.
