Descartes Systems talks use of WMS software by AYBL

ACTIVEWEAR BRAND AYBL INCREASES ITS FULFILLMENT EFFICIENCY BY 100% WITH DESCARTES' ECOMMERCE WAREHOUSE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

United Kingdom-based e-commerce brand AYBL, an innovative on-line retailer of activewear, has transformed its warehouse and fulfilment capabilities by replacing paper-based picking and manual fulfilment practices with The Descartes Systems Group Inc.'s e-commerce warehouse management system (WMS). Using the solution to improve picking efficiency and accuracy, AYBL has doubled its fulfilment capacity with existing staff and can seamlessly scale to fulfill over 70,000 orders a day during peak season.

"To become a leader in e-commerce within the U.K. you have to deliver on customer promises and build loyalty, which means you have to be able to rely on your warehouse and fulfilment capability: every order shipped on time, accurately, with visibility into the process, easy returns, all on demand and fast," said Paul Maynard, head of operations, AYBL. "With Descartes's e-commerce WMS, we instantly improved picking accuracy and efficiency, and we no longer needed to keep our warehouse layout in SKU [stock keeping unit] order, which had previously prevented us from making the best use of available storage capacity. Additionally, the system scaled easily as we moved multiple times to larger warehouse facilities and, today, allows us to flex to 100-plus people during peak periods and train new staff within hours, which beforehand would never have been possible."

Part of Descartes's e-commerce solution suite, the Descartes e-commerce WMS helps direct-to-consumer brands and e-commerce retailers drive significant efficiencies across order fulfilment processes to provide a remarkable customer experience. The solution helps ensure that retailers can ship on time, ship the right items, not oversell existing inventory and have transparency into warehouse operations. Order information is automatically available to be executed via mobile-driven multiorder pick-and-pack strategies, and then fed into Descartes and third party parcel shipment systems. The solution is preintegrated with major e-commerce platforms, such as Shopify Plus, Brightpearl by Sage, Netsuite and others, to accelerate implementation and time to value.

"We're pleased to help AYBL scale its fulfilment operations to meet growing consumer demand for its products and maintain its customer commitment -- even at the height of peak season," said Johannes Panzer, head of industry solutions for e-commerce at Descartes. "Our e-commerce WMS is designed for ambitious e-commerce brands. It empowers them to grow efficiently and reduce fulfilment costs to achieve more profitable person-to-goods fulfilment operations."
