Fleet Management: Cadre Technologies Releases New Version Of Cadence Mobile Logistics
Cadre Technologies has recently released a new version of Cadence Mobile Logistics (CML), its Microsoft Windows-based radio frequency system that is part of the Cadence Fulfillment software suite. CML integrates a variety of new technologically advanced features that enable warehouse workers to update inventory in real-time and increase productivity.
CML is enhanced by several new features that further streamline the data capture process.
- Supports the "catch weight" of products being shipped, an important feature in the food industry which requires this information during receiving and picking.
- Supports "pick and pass," also known as zone picking, whereby one warehouse worker stays in a zone to complete the lines of an order specific to that zone and passes the order, via a conveyor belt or cart, to another zone to be processed by a different picker working in that zone.
- Allows manual lot substitutions managed by business rules. For example, if a worker is asked to pick a product from a lot located at the back of a warehouse location, he or she can choose to pick the product from another lot in front as long as it conforms to rules such as expiration dates and does not break a set rule prohibiting the lot change.
- Lets managers assign work groups through a module called "Team Assignment," important for designating workers assigned to a large account with customized warehouse needs thus increasing quality and productivity
"Cadre's latest version of Cadence Mobile Logistics continues to enhance the efficiency of warehouse operations with its fully integrated features," said Ed Fuller, vice president of engineering for Cadre Technologies. "CML improves warehouse productivity and streamlines the logistics process, increasing the bottom line."
