The decision
Choose a WMS that fit the operation, then address the floor layout, inventory controls, ERP connection, and training needed to use it.
The published result
The published case describes live inventory visibility, improved picking and shipping accuracy, and better understanding of staffing and utilization. It does not quantify those improvements.
Software alone wouldn’t fix it.
The operation lacked bin locations, clear signage, dependable inventory counts, and a warehouse management system. Management turnover and limited internal IT expertise made change harder. Same-day and next-day delivery promises were difficult to meet.
RefureTech started on site, documented requirements, and evaluated software against how the business actually worked. The team steered the supplier away from an unnecessarily complex option and selected DaVinci WMS for the fit.
From the floor plan
to the ERP integration.
Operations
Process maps, warehouse floor planning, rack and aisle signage, and pick paths.
Systems
DaVinci configuration, custom reports and dashboards, and a custom AccountMate ERP integration despite the absence of APIs or prebuilt connectors.
People
Leadership education, training documentation, manager power-user training, off-site demonstrations, and on-site user acceptance testing.
Control
Cycle counting and discrepancy reports to help the team understand and act on inventory differences.
Visibility the team
could work with.
The published account describes live inventory visibility, improved picking and shipping accuracy, and better understanding of staffing and utilization. The work combined operational discipline with software the team could adopt.
