Case Study: Instawares increases warehouse efficiency with WiSys Pocket ES

Instawares - Customer Case Study

Instawares, a fast-growing online-only seller of commercial equipment and supplies for restaurants, hotels, and offices, needed to keep costs low while maintaining accurate, real-time product availability and pricing. With thousands of SKUs moving through its own warehouse and many orders drop-shipped directly from vendors, the company faced manual, time-consuming warehouse processes that threatened efficiency and inventory accuracy. Vendor WiSys provided the WiSys Pocket ES product to extend Macola Enterprise Suite ERP onto the warehouse floor.

WiSys implemented Pocket ES on wireless handheld devices to streamline receiving, binning, picking, packing, and shipping with real-time ERP connectivity. The solution improved warehouse visibility, enabled multiple-bin and cross-dock shipping, reduced handling mistakes, and made the system easy for staff to learn. Instawares increased shipments by 400% with fewer staff and paid for the system in less than five months, significantly extending the value of its Macola software.
