The delivery had to be executed Just-In-Time (JIT) and Just-in-Sequence (JIS), with Very Narrow Aisle Storage (VNA) and utilizing an Automated Storage Retrieval System (ASRS). The company needed a fully integrated warehouse management system that could meet these specific requirements and optimize the loading of Specialized Delivery/Transportation by their fleet of box trucks.
