Warehousing Technology

At each warehouse location across the country, Keller utilizes Manhattan SCALE as its Warehouse Management System (WMS).  SCALE gives our customers 24/7, real-time visibility of their inventory via the Internet.  This allows our customers to keep the pulse of their supply chain at any time, day or night.

Manhattan SCALE provides the following benefits:

• VISIBILITY – real-time custom inventory and utilization reporting with reliable data accuracy
• OPTIMIZATION – automated processes, dynamic slotting, directed put away, logic-driven operational activities
• TRACEABILITY – complete product flow history and rapid product recall
• ACCURACY – system drive cycle counting and picking requirements
• AUTOMATED BILLING
• INTERFACE with all major ERP systems

RF barcode scanning gives Keller the ability to track customer inventory and more efficiently run its warehousing operations.  Every time a piece of inventory is touched, the data is sent to our WMS—Manhattan SCALE and customer inventory is updated accordingly.  Below are some additional benefits of RF scanning.

• Inventory accuracy – Even with a high number of SKUs, the quantity on hand will match the quantity in the system.
• Live feed – Inventory numbers can change by the minute, and RF scanning allows these numbers to be updated instantaneously.
• Efficiency – With Keller’s trained staff, cycle count inaccuracies can be fixed, orders can be filled, and the product can be received – all on the spot.
• Traceability – Especially critical in instances of recalls, inventory is traceable at every step along the way to your end-users.

EDI (Electronic Data Interchange), in plain language, is a computer-to-computer conversation of business transactions in a standard format.  EDI is commonly employed to exchange standardized business transactions—such as invoices, purchase orders, and shipping notices—with little to zero manual input.

At Keller Warehousing & Co-Packing, we have the ability to connect to our customers in a wide variety of ways, including AS2, SFTP, FTP, and also in various formats, such as X12, EDIFACT, and XML.

Our “1K” platform designed by our in-house development team provides exclusive access to your inventories and several reporting functions.
