The Why
Hendrick Automotive Group, the largest privately held automotive retail organization in the US, embarked on a supply chain technology transformation including implementing a new ERP alongside Körber Warehouse Advantage in their four distribution centers. HAG sought a partner that could help them orchestrate a successful simultaneous implementation on a tight timeline.
The Work
The Bricz Körber implementation team partnered with HAG to lead integrated, in-person design workshops to align all stakeholders. Bricz collaborated across various teams for design, integration, build, and test phases to ensure a successful and comprehensive solution. Orchestration was key to the successful simultaneous ERP and WMS implementations.
The Outcome
The Bricz team supported HAG through a successful simultaneous ERP and WMS go-live for the first DC, then three additional sites over the next three months.
As a part of the Körber implementation, Bricz helped HAG replace a manual pick-to-label process with new enhanced functionality increasing throughput by 30%+, improving picking accuracy, and virtually eliminating mis-picks.
