Jawad Go-Live
SNS, the leading provider of supply chain solutions in the Gulf and Middle-East, is proud to announce the successful implementation of the Infor WM Solution delivered by SPAN Group with integration to Retail-Pro and a GOH system at Jawad Business Group, a leading retailer and wholesaler of fashion items, accessories, restaurants and furniture in Dubai.
Beirut, Lebanon, November 09, 2008 --(PR.com)-- Jawad Business Group are the franchisees for several international brands such as Adams, Pumpkin Patch, Hush Puppies, Shoe Citi, Mango, Camaieu, Bendon, Monsoon, Accessorize, Alcott, Bhs, Flamant, The White Company, La Maison Coloniale, Bois & Chiffons, Papa John’s Pizza, Dairy Queen, Burger King, Chilis, Romaono’s Macaroni Grill in all or some of the GCC countries. Jawad Business Group also operate supermarkets and C stores in Bahrain and are also leading FMCG distributors and food service providers in Bahrain and Qatar. This variety of products stored in the 12,000 m2 facility located in the Jebel-Ali Freezone made the project implementation quite challenging. To add to the complexity, Jawad facility includes different storage conditions (ambient, chillers and freezers) and different storage systems (Standard Selective, Very Narrow aisle and garment ion hangers).
The new solution at the Jawad facility has ensured a minimal document processing time thanks to the integration with the ERP and automation for Garments Operations thanks to the integration with the GOH system. The challenge in such projects is to have one system cater for all the different requirements, processes and equipments used and communicate smoothly with other applications.
“The Expertise of SNS in the Gulf and Middle-East with different industries and multiple warehousing technologies was the primary reason that drove us to select them as our partner in IT solution,” said Murali Seshan Chief Information Officer at Jawad. “We are very satisfied with the results and even more with the continuous support we are receiving.”
“Thanks to the hard work and long hours spent by the team, along with their ability to overcome language and cultural barriers, we were able to go-live with the system in about months,” said Nadim Klat, Project Manager at SNS. “We are proud to add Jawad to our list of successful projects.”
