Case Study: Mailender achieves streamlined inventory control and improved cash flow with Vormittag Associates (VAI) S2K Warehouse Management

S2K Warehouse concentrates on productivity as a key business driver, optimizing operational efficiencies and cutting costs.

Mailender, a regional distributor of janitorial, healthcare, safety and foodservice products, faced dispersed inventory, siloed departments, paper-based transfers and time-consuming manual entry into its ERP, which delayed sales posting and hindered operations. To preserve its legacy system while improving warehouse performance, Mailender evaluated partners and chose VAI and its S2K Warehouse Management Software to provide a tightly integrated WMS on the company’s IBM Power platform.

VAI implemented S2K Warehouse Management to automate inventory tracking and enable real-time enterprise integration, replacing paper processes and manual counts. The result was drastically reduced physical inventory time, the ability to locate product within minutes, clearer accountability for order accuracy, more accurate purchasing and fewer payables errors, and faster sales posting that improved cash flow — benefits Mailender began realizing almost immediately.
