ecUtopia, a provider of EDI services within the home furnishings industry, has introduced its cloud-based Dock Scheduling and Yard Management solution, the first of several new supply chain management products being offered by ecUtopia.
“Dock Scheduling and Yard Management will give our customers complete control of yard traffic, improve efficiency and profitability with precise scheduling,” said Ron Sellers, co-founder and SVP of ecUtopia.
Mor Furniture, a top 100 furniture retailer in San Diego, will be the first customer using the new functionality. “We’ve been a happy user of ecUtopia since 2012,” said Matt Tranchina, CFO of Mor Furniture. “Their new functionality will increase yard capability and reduce off-dock fees, this will take additional time and cost out of our supply chain.”
“The use of ecUtopia’s Dock Scheduling and Yard Management solutions will improve our customers’ space utilization, bring higher priority product into the warehouse faster and increase sales by making the right product available more quickly,” said Phil Kenney, president and CEO of ecUtopia. “With warehouse and yard space costing a premium in more and more markets, this is one way to do more without taking on the additional cost of adding space.”
