Legacy systems often create business risks. When Source Logistics faced the need to replace a legacy Warehouse Management System (WMS), they didn’t just need a quick fix; they needed a scalable foundation for a 25-site rollout. Completing the Site 1 installation in under five months required more than just speed, it required a disciplined strategy that balanced standardized core processes with the unique needs of a diverse customer mix.
In this webinar recording, supply chain industry leaders Bart Bullard, VP of Information Technology at Source Logistics, and Brenda Stoltz, Sr. Managing Director at Alpine Supply Chain Solutions, have an advanced executive briefing on the framework that accelerated their timeline without skipping critical steps and setting a foundation for future site success. Using the real-world case study of a Softeon WMS implementation for a complex site in Montebello, CA, the expert panelists will share how they achieved operational stability within two weeks of go-live and how those lessons are now fueling an extensive multi-site expansion.
