About Company
TodayÕs customer occupies a new power position. They want the best product at the most convenient location and the lowest price. And they expect delivery the next day-if not today.

Competing in this landscape comes down to the strength and execution of your distribution strategy. No longer viewed as a cost of doing business, distribution becomes a focal point for business growth-your ultimate competitive advantage. But itÕs a difficult problem to solve. It takes optimizing numerous complex, interrelated factors – like where to locate fulfillment centers and inventory, when to add capacity, how to optimize transporå?tation – to get the greatest return for the business. These can be “bet the businessÓ type decisions since the consequences will impact the business for years to come. And even harder than choosing the right path, is getting all the stakeholders to support it.

Keeping Customers Happy
MSC Industrial Supply Co. had a winning idea to improve customer satisfaction: provide next day delivery and offer the latest cut-off time for busy companies to order any of its more than 600,000 stocked products. Fortna studied MSCÕs complex warehouse operations and found an innovative way to speed up order cycles without overhauling its operations. The result: happier customers and the largest cost savings initiative in MSC IndustrialÕs history.
