Fulfilling customer orders at Meritor’s 134,100 square-metre distribution facility in Florence, Kentucky, US is critical. It’s the primary distribution centre for Meritor’s global aftermarket business. Keeping this facility working at full capacity requires hundreds of employees across two shifts, armed with scanners, voice picking equipment, and mobile printers, deftly operating an array of material handling trucks. When it was time to upgrade the facility’s warehouse management system (WMS) and its pool of handheld scanners, Meritor knew that finding a better approach to managing its handheld equipment and scanner batteries was critical.
