Scaling parts distribution after rapid growth    

Founded in 1948, Cleveland Brothers is one of the largest Caterpillar® dealers, serving Pennsylvania and parts of West Virginia and Maryland from 25 locations. After two acquisitions more than doubled its size, the company needed a warehouse management system that could handle 170,000 inventory items and 500 orders a day.

The result: within months of deploying Tecsys’ Elite™ WMS, Cleveland Brothers went paperless, reached a 99.98% fill rate and handled 20% more inventory with 40% fewer people.
