@Ease Warehousing TechnologiesTM Offer Targeted Maintenance Support at the Push of a Button

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, NC - July 17, 2017 - Optricity launches its latest collection of software solutions, the @Ease Warehousing TechnologiesTM (@Ease Technologies). Architected to strengthen warehouse performance, @Ease Technologies are offering flexible ways to perform ongoing slotting maintenance by targeting specific issues commonly found in distribution center operations.

With the ease of a button push, this series of replenishment, consolidation and picking productivity fixers, coined the ReplixerTM, ConsolidexerTM, ProdexerTM and ForeplexerTM, are designed to maintain warehouse health and provide support to the optimization objectives set at the strategic level, ultimately extending the life of an optimization initiative. In combination with Optricity's best in class OptiSlot DCTM Slotting Software (OptiSlot), each technology enables the ability to implement the required periodic (daily, weekly, seasonal, promotional or on-demand, et.al.) maintenance moves to keep operations on track to continue to achieve operational efficiency.


Optricity's Warehouse Technology Platform, which includes the @Ease Technologies, was unveiled at the 40th Annual Warehousing Education and Research Council (WERC) conference. With an air of secrecy and hints scattered throughout the conference, the interest levels were high when Optricity made the announcement. Noting that the rapid, changing warehouse environment requires more attention to conquer changes in demand and product mix, the need to accommodate the slotting maintenance phase of the warehouse life cycle was apparent and announcement of the ability to tackle these challenges with ease was met with excitement and enthusiasm.

Optricity's launch of the @Ease Technologies coincides with Version 7.1, the latest release of OptiSlot. OptiSlot has been implemented in hundreds of distribution centers across a multitude of industries, in 17 countries and counting around the world. Additional software on the Warehouse Technology Platform lineup include profiling, integration and simulation - all performance improvement solutions for the warehouse.
