A Socius24 Case Study
Oxford University Press (OUP), the world's largest university press, faced challenges managing its in-house distribution center with an outdated and restrictive warehouse control system. This system relied on a complex and costly conveyoring system, hindering the organization's ability to scale and operate efficiently. They partnered with Socius24 to implement a new warehouse management solution from Blue Yonder.
Socius24 provided a Blue Yonder warehouse and labor management system that gave OUP full visibility and control over its distribution processes. The solution optimized operations, leading to a 20% increase in productivity and an equivalent reduction in manpower costs. This allowed OUP to absorb significant business growth over 13 years without increasing headcount, and it helped them win the Distributor of the Year award nine times in a decade.
