Distribution Supply Chain Brings Growth to PRONTO North America

Distribution streamlines physical process such as the picking and packing of goods as well as the movement of goods internally (warehousing) and externally (shipping and transportation logistics). This process also allows for the extended supply chain through the transmission and receipt of electronic messages. Distribution manages all stock related operations across the extended enterprise. It enables dramatic reductions in receiving and delivery times and, with PRONTO's open architecture and powerful collaborative applications, manages the information flow both upstream and downstream through the entire supply chain. According to Mike Ligudzinski, CEO of PRONTO North America, "Distribution brings a new level of efficiency to the supply chain processes through superior integration of product, information, and finance flows. Business agility is dramatically increased with rapid sales order entry and outstanding warehouse throughput."
