Robert Bosch Inc. Canada houses more than 55,000 Stock Keeping Units (SKUs) in its 152,000 square foot Mississauga, Ontario warehouse facility, each business day shipping 600-700 orders to destinations coast-to-coast that range from light-weight parcel shipments to full-load tractor-trailer or rail car. Similar to the size of its orders, shipment contents leaving the Bosch warehouse vary widely and include automotive aftermarket parts, power tools and accessories, and security systems. The customer profile is similarly diverse, according to Distribution Manager Chris Dyer. “Descartes can handle all of our shipping needs, from the very smallest package to the largest full loads,” he says. “We haven’t quantified savings at this point, but it is easy to see that they are significant. We’re through with handwritten documents: Descartes prepares printed, error-free copies automatically and quickly and this alone represents a major savings of personnel time.”
