Unlocking Inventory Visibility with New Dawn WES for Lane Automotive

Background

Rescuing an indistinct inventory control implementation

Lane Automotive, a leading distributor of performance automotive parts and accessories, implemented an ASRS system with the expectation of achieving complete inventory visibility and slot-level inventory tracking.

While the system successfully monitored tote locations across the warehouse, Lane Automotive lacked visibility into tote contents, a fundamental gap that disrupted accountability and data integrity.

Operators were forced to repeatedly recount and re-enter SKUs due to missing slot-level visibility, slowing operations and eroding trust in inventory accuracy.

Solution

Conveyco implemented the New Dawn Warehouse Execution System (WES) for the automated warehouse solution.

New Dawn WES gave Lane Automotive true slot-by-slot visibility, bridging the gap between physical movement and inventory accuracy. With real-time synchronization and rigorous pre-launch testing, the solution unlocked efficiency and reliability across fulfillment operations.

KEY DELIVERABLES
  • Seamlessly integrated New Dawn WES with zero disruption to ongoing operations
  • Solved the ASRS visibility gap by tracking not just tote locations, but their contents
  • Delivered true end-to-end inventory control and filled critical gaps OEM software couldn’t address
