International Business Systems Unveils Online Tool to Drive Improvements in Supply Chain Outcomes

FOLSOM, Calif., Oct. 6, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- International Business Systems (IBS), a global leading integrated Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), Warehouse Management System (WMS) and supply chain provider, today announced a new ROI calculator that helps distributors evaluate the performance of their current WMS platforms. The ROI calculator is available on the company's new corporate website, IBS.net.

Through a three-step process, the IBS WMS ROI calculator at http://info.ibs.net/WMS-ROI-Calculator.html determines the investments a distributor should consider for the greatest return in the shortest amount of time.  Those steps include a self-examination, external audit and upgrade implementation plan.

The calculator explores tangible benefits around labor, warehouse resource planning and scheduling, equipment, inventory, storage space and transportation as well as intangible ones around better management reporting and decision-making, decreased manufacturing downtime, improved customer service and accurate batch traceability.

"With the omni-channel phenomenon and other challenges confronting distributors, there are multiple ways to manage a warehouse and distribution center today," said Brian Lindenmeyer, Principal Consultant at IBS.  "Our WMS ROI calculator helps users understand fundamental best practices toward reducing costs, improving customer service and increasing profitability."

IBS Dynaman WMS is unique in the marketplace for its position as a stand-alone solution and component of an integrated suite that includes ERP, Sales & Operations Planning, and web point-of-sale functions.  The approach lets customers use only the pieces they require without being forced to use products from many vendors.

In addition to all of the normal operational interfaces, Dynaman's visualization tool allows customers to see their warehouses or yards in a graphical format, and interact by clicking or dragging and dropping visual components.
