Challenge
- Manual processes hindering productivity: Fleet Feet’s paper-based processes created bottlenecks and left too much room for manual error, slowing down every order.
- Outdated systems lacked insights: the company’s legacy WMS offered almost no visibility or metrics, and without integration to NetSuite, Fleet Feet was running blind to performance data.
- Fulfillment unable to keep up with demand: with slow, manual workflows, Fleet Feet’s warehouse could only process a single store order each week, leaving no path to scale.
Solution
- Smarter systems, seamless flow: Infios WM (Warehouse Management), integrated with NetSuite and 22 Locus Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs), gave Fleet Feet an intelligent foundation for automation and real-time control.
- Robots that do the legwork: by automating picking, Fleet Feet’s teams walked less, worked faster and relied on AMRs to handle travel and repetitive movement.
- Faster fulfillment through flexibility: orders were automatically split into smaller, more manageable segments, helping Fleet Feet fulfill faster and adapt to changing demand.
- Visibility that drives accountability: with real-time tracking, Fleet Feet gained the transparency and accuracy it had been missing, tightening accountability from dock to delivery.
“What was important to us was, if we make this jump to a WMS, are we going to be able to stay on it for 8 to 10 years. We found that with Infios.”
