Felixstowe Warehouse Selects Codegate's mobilewarehouse For Enhanced Online CRM

By Raja Singh Chaudhary, TMCnet Contributor


Codegate, a provider of mobile enterprise solutions that deliver online CRM, has announced that Felixstowe Warehousing has selected its mobilewarehouse software to meet the requirements of its blue chip customers by delivering accurate tracking of goods into, within and out of its warehouse.


The mobilewarehouse runs on Motorola (News - Alert) MC3000 mobile computers and transfers customer order and supplier shipment data from the back office system of Felixstowe Warehousing to the warehouse operatives of the company.

Stuart Gosling, director, Felixstowe Warehousing, commented that the company needed to deploy a fully integrated barcoding solution covering goods received, location, stock checking and dispatch to help it in securing a major contract and to enable the company to expand its range of services to a wider customer base.

The conventional paper based warehouse management system adopted by Felixstowe Warehousing was not being able to deliver latest information on stock and dispatch, and the company had already been conducting market research around mobile data solutions that would enable it to deliver this type of enhanced service to its key contract customers. After short listing the final three solution providers, Felixstowe decided to choose Codegate, after a presentation and showcase of its mobilewarehouse software solution was able to impress it.

According to Trevor Manville, IT manager at Felixstowe Warehousing, the mobilewarehouse showcase was a critical factor in company’s decision to go with Codegate, as Felixstowe has got its own Warehouse Management and integration of the barcoding solution with its SQL database was of prime concern. Manville noted that this integration would deliver accurate real-time updates concerning all aspects of stock control which was paramount to the success of this implementation, as the mobilewarehouse showcase demonstrated that the necessary levels of integration were achievable.

Based Codegate's core enterprise mobility software, the mobilewarehouse solution has been designed to interface with legacy management systems and data stores. It helps the organizations in leveraging their previous investments by enabling barcode information to be scanned by a mobile device, which can be further transferred in real-time from aisle and shelf locations to an organization’s back office system.
