Warehouse Management
Nexten’s
Warehouse Management System, eCache,
is designed based on a strategic
business intelligence application tightly integrated with our
eShop product line and your scheduling
system. This integration translates warehouse
performance objectives into a coherent set of measures. These measures
enable identification and implementation of changes to warehouse processes
for maximum effectiveness. It also will serve as a Decision Support System
tool to provide on-line information for "what -if analysis"
and dynamic resource allocation. eCache
will support a variety of modes of manufacturing
with the ability to combine different modes within the same company such
as Make-to-Order, Make-to-Contract, Make-to-Stock, Configure-to-Order,
Assemble-to-Order, JIT and Kanban.
eCache
is comprised of two modules:
-
ePoise
is a series of software modules for integrated control of carousels,
AS/RS, conveyors, and other automated equipment linked on-line to
eCache.
-
rfTrak
will use radio frequency (RF) and user-friendly interface with ERP
systems to provide remote real-time access to the plant's inventory.
Utilization of bar code labels provides a visible identifier for each
component from the time that it is received until it reaches the finished-goods
stockroom. eCache
allows users to track the part's movement by allowing confirmation
of the data before it is transmitted to the host.
