Hy-Vee, an employee-owned grocery retailer, has optimized its distribution and transportation network using Manhattan’s Warehouse Management System (WMS), Transportation Management System (TMS), and Demand Forecasting and Inventory Optimization (DFIO). Manhattan’s WMS improved productivity across three primary warehouses over the past year by optimizing slotting and overall warehouse efficiency. The TMS ensures maximum cube utilization on outbound loads and improved backhaul management, leading to better on-time deliveries.
Hy-Vee also leverages Manhattan’s DFIO to plan and predict future demand, which was crucial during the COVID-19 pandemic for distinguishing regular demand from unusual spikes. This allowed for precise forecasts and better purchasing decisions. The successful deployment of these comprehensive solutions underscores the power of a unified system for Hy-Vee.
This partnership highlights Manhattan's ability to provide an end-to-end supply chain solution that drives tangible business results for a large grocery retailer. The successful implementation of WMS, TMS, and DFIO demonstrates the breadth and effectiveness of Manhattan's offerings, contributing to customer retention and potential for future expansion.
