Paperless Warehousing Completes a WMS Changeover for Montague Cold Storage

Announcement posted by Paperless Warehousing 23 Feb 2017

Head of IT at Montague Cold Storage, Michael Foreshew expresses his gratitude to the PW team for a flawless implementation and migration to Paperless WMS at their Truganina facility.

Last week, Montague Cold Storage re-deployed PW's reputable WMS solution which is the existing Paperless Solution Montague’s have been using for years at their four other sites replacing another standalone WMS at their Truganina DC. This changeover came after Montague saw an immediate need for a more efficient, flexible, stable and scalable warehousing system, in response to the ongoing success with organisations such as Allied Mills, Patties Foods, Murray Goulburn, Bega Cheese and Warrnambool Cheese and Butter to name a few.

Implemented and integrated with their customers’ interfaces, PW’s WMS enables Montague to instantly move new customers onto its system quickly and efficiently, eliminating manual entry, and better managing their overall warehouse and distribution functions. The flexibility and scalability of the platform also allows Montague to handle any unpredictable changes in their future operations.

“I would like to express my sincerest gratitude to all the staff at PW for a flawless implementation and migration to their WMS at our Truganina facility. The changeover was done promptly and with zero downtime, as if we were replacing a wing on a flying aeroplane. PW’s exceptional service and technical expertise brought a fantastic result for Montague, and I look forward to continuing the relationship”, said Michael Foreshew, Head of IT at the Montague Group.

“Having access to a scalable Warehouse Management Solution with guaranteed efficiency gains has become a necessity, rather than a luxury for food distributors, grocery retailers and the logistics companies that support them”, said Scott Symons, at Paperless Warehousing. “PW’s expertise as a WMS innovator is proven among many food and beverage distributors, FMCG’s, retail operators, third party logistics companies and many others. I am pleased to see Montague migrate their entire cold storage operations to PW. Together, we have a heritage of over 15 years of successful business together and are looking forward to continuing our relationship for many more years to come”.

Truganina is Montague’s 5th Distribution Centre to deploy PW’s WMS platform, with the other 4 located at (Tullamarine, West Melbourne, Keysborough and Allansford).
