We at GBC do not:

- SELL ERP, MRP or warehouse management (WMS) systems, or warehouse technologies (bar coding, Voice Directed Picking - VDP, Pick To Light - PTL)

- presume any system is being used in ways we know REDUCE SLOW MOVING INVENTORY BUT NOT HURT CUSTOMER SERVICE

- assume any warehouse is organized and operating in ways we know PREVENT ERRORS and MAXIMIZE PRODUCTIVITY

- assume a good cost-justification of a WMS, central distribution facility (CDF), bar coding, VDP or PTL

- favor any particular ERP, MRP or WMS system, or warehouse technology or vendor -- but avoid some -- when selecting systems and technology

We objectively help: Decrease slow moving inventory without hurting customer service -- we help clients use their systems in unique ways we developed (including statistical formulas and probability tables).  Prevent warehouse errors and increase productivity, using JIT Quality Methods and inexpensive, quick changes. Increase gross margin revenue.  Determine the justification of WMS, CDF, bar coding, VDP, PTL - by estimating true long term costs. Determine if a system should be replaced. Select the most cost-effective ERP/MRP/WMS while avoiding the wrong ones, overpaying and an unprotective contract.  Provide litigation support and expert witness testimony.
