Taygroup pull clients closer with tight integration into LocateIT WMS.
Taygroup have been in business since 1992 and have gained a reputation as a high quality company providing first class logistics solutions. With a multiple client base Taygroup operate over 250,000 sq ft of warehousing, in many cases acting as an extra department of their customers business; adding value to their clients by streamlining their logistics processes.
In today’s market customers are coming to logistics providers with more complex and individual requirements. For Taygroup to function as part of their customers’ team without any gaps in the process, they identified the key elements they would need from a warehouse management system. One was to provide real-time information and set up RF and mobile processes, as well as the ability to link in with customers systems. To satisfy the needs of their high – profile clients it was thought that nothing short of a reliable, best of breed solution would do.
As Clydebuilt Solutions have a genuine strength and extensive experience of creating such links – Taygroup choose LocateIT WMS. LocateIT allows for real time communication with their clients as well as other internal systems, such as sales and transport. Full track and trace ability is inbuilt, from the point of receipt up until the actual delivery, allowing clients to receive up-to-date information on the location of their product at all times.
With a whole raft of EDI links available, user definable timed reports and online access for Clients across the Internet, the system allows for any number of real-time ‘snapshots’ of Key Performance Indicators to be viewed at the touch of a button, 24 hours a day.
Implementations and Projects Manager, Paul Haines, states, “with an average of around 35,000 pallet movements each week, real-time systems monitoring for our Clients is a pre-requisite. With the confidence we have in LocateIT and our partnership with Clydebuilt, we believe that anything is possible and pride ourselves by being able to offer a more flexible and cost effective service than other suppliers”.
Taygroup have fully integrated their LocateIT with many of their customers, one being Jordans Cereals (now the Jordans Ryvita Company part of Associated British Foods). This relationship could not function without the system as the two way communications removes the keying element, and the whole things runs smoothly in the background.
Leading UK logistics provider Bibby Distribution has now completed the acquisition of Taygroup Ltd.
Over time, Bibby will integrate Taygroup into its UK operations, driving efficiencies and added value to both existing and new customers. As part of this integration the business will take on the Bibby Distribution name however the Clydebuilt suite of programmes will continue to support the ongoing operational effectiveness of the ex-Taygroup business.
