挑战
Monarch Brands, a Philadelphia-based wholesaler and manufacturer of microfiber, commercial linen, institutional towels, and wiper rags, had a manual supply chain operation that was time-consuming and inefficient. The company had two dedicated employees fielding phone calls all day from their seven different carriers, recording everything in an Excel spreadsheet, and manually comparing rates before booking. The company didn’t have time to take inventory and were ‘in the dark’ about a lot of their data. The leadership at Monarch Brands knew there had to be a smarter way to manage their operations, so in late 2018 they brought in Conrad Hough as their Shipping Supervisor. Hough has extensive experience in implementing technology into supply chain operations.
关于客户
Monarch Global Brands are wholesalers and manufacturers of microfiber, commercial linen, institutional towels and wiper rags based in Philadelphia, PA. As a third-generation, family-owned company, they have a product, market knowledge and passion that enables them to be the unbreakable first link in their customers’ textile supply chain. Monarch Brands does business all across 20 countries and therefore has extensive supply chain needs. As of 2018, the company had no logistics or warehousing technology to manage the operations of their 300,000 sq. ft. facility.
解决方案
Monarch Brands decided to fully embrace technology in their supply chain and began their ERP and TMS journey with the goal of reducing wasted time and saving money. They implemented Kuebix TMS and Sage 100 and integrated the two systems with additional invoice audit functionality. Two or three days after calling his Kuebix Account Manager, Hough had his team up and running with Kuebix Business Pro. This left him free to manage carrier relationships and do more accurate tracking of KPIs. Instead of having two dedicated employees calling carriers looking for rates, the company has been able to reallocate resources to streamline operations. Hough has also been able to forge relationships with additional carriers to broaden their bench of options. Additionally, the company’s inside sales team has also been able to leverage the TMS to better answer customers’ questions and get ahead of outstanding calls and emails.

Improving Vending Machine Profitability with the Internet of Things (IoT)
The vending industry is undergoing a sea change, taking advantage of new technologies to go beyond just delivering snacks to creating a new retail location. Intelligent vending machines can be found in many public locations as well as company facilities, selling different types of goods and services, including even computer accessories, gold bars, tickets, and office supplies. With increasing sophistication, they may also provide time- and location-based data pertaining to sales, inventory, and customer preferences. But at the end of the day, vending machine operators know greater profitability is driven by higher sales and lower operating costs.
