Swiss-based logistics company M+R Spedag will implement Infor SCM Warehouse Management (WM) to assist the expansion of its supply chain and logistics services across Asia.

The company is currently utilising Infor FMS SunSystems for financial management. This most recent investment validates Infor's strategy to offer best-in-class extensions to their existing installed solutions.

M+R said WM was chosen because the solution allows the company to provide better supply chain and fulfillment services to their customers. The solution's ability to scale as business continues to grow was also an important factor in the selection.

Said Holger Schaurig, General Manager Logistics & SCM Asia, M+R Spedag, "The logistics industry is extremely competitive. Infor SCM WM helps us combine our expertise, high quality IT solutions and a customer-oriented focus to deliver our highly flexible supply chain solutions to our customers. As a result, we are able to increase customer satisfaction as well as improve our internal processes through lead time reduction, productivity improvements and cost-efficiencies."

WM has a modern, standards-based architecture that will allow M+R Spedag to adjust and change processes depending on customers needs. It provides real time information about inventory and stock levels 24/7 throughout their supply chain, both inside and outside of the four walls of the warehouse, through embedded performance management dashboard, analytics and reporting capabilities.

M+R Spedag, with more than 1,000 employees globally, is operational in 58 locations across 23 countries with its own offices and has a global network of partners comprising of 12,500 logistics experts.

With offices first in Hong Kong, Taipei and Singapore, M+R Spedag has continuously expanded its activities in the region and now offers comprehensive logistics and transportation solutions in all major trading centres.
