Easy
Gardener Meets Customer ASN Requirements with Eagle's RF Express™ for
QAD MFG/PRO
KINNELON, N.J.—(BusinessWire)—June
25, 2001—Companies that serve high-profile customers like Target,
K-Mart, Sears and Orchard Supply are required to meet those
organizations’ advance ship notice (ASN) and labeling compliance
mandates or face the possibility of significant fines.
Easy Gardener, Inc. (www.easygardener.com)—a
Waco, TX-based garden supply company and a subsidiary of U.S. Home and
Garden—addressed this challenge by seeking out an enterprise-compatible on-line, real-time bar coding and automated data collection
solution. They found it in
Eagle Consulting and Development, Inc.’s RF Express for QAD MFG/PRO.
“In selecting
Eagle, we found someone to help us meet our labeling requirements and
reduce our shipping errors,” said Lee Fahlenkamp, information technology
(IT) manager, Easy Gardener.
In May 2000
Easy Gardener went live with RF Express.
They quickly noticed a difference in picking errors with their new
labeling capabilities. “You
can tell a big difference in our accuracy in picking,” said Fahlenkamp.
The Eagle solution also helps Easy Gardener build a pallet
structure that they transmit via electronic data interchange (EDI) to
customers. “Companies like
K-Mart always want to know what they’re getting and when it will
arrive,” added Fahlenkamp.
Eagle Executive
Vice-President of Marketing and Sales Bill Paone says, “RF Express helps
Easy Gardener avoid customer fines associated with non-compliance with
labeling mandates.” He
added, “Our ability to customize this solution to produce unique labels
also reduced their picking errors. All
in all, they expect the product to pay for itself in two years or less by
reducing errors and fines.”
