CLLS, a full fledge engineering equipment trading company, is recognized as one of the leading industrial players. In 1990, CLLS became a public non-listed company with global reach across countries like Malaysia, Indonesia, Hong Kong, China, Taiwan, Philippines and the Indo-China region, a testament to their 50 years of stellar accomplishments. With expansion plans that boast of the entire Asia blueprint, CLLS is focused on developing our marketing and distribution channels.

CLLS implemented iWMS to automate its warehouse operations. iWMS is deployed to manage a huge inventory, high volumes of parts movement, capture racking for engines, bay for big items and carousel for parts/accessories. iWMS is also integrated to both SAP and carousel system. At the same time iWMS implementation will streamline the entire warehouse processes to optimise resources, reduce redundancy and paper works.

According to Roger Tan, IT & Logistics Manager of CLLS,“We are looking for a robust and flexible Warehouse Management System (WMS) that supports interacting with our new carousel system and interfacing real time with our existing SAP A1 are keys to our selection. We evaluated a few WMS and selected KEYfields iWMS. Besides meeting our operational requirements, KEYfields’ project team has experience in interfacing with SAP and automated Carousel. The project was implemented successfully in 5 months. Today, we start to see efficiency and productivity gain in our operations. Human error is reduced drastically with scanning instead of manually recording the movement of goods. Parts picking is much faster with Carousel and the real-time interface between iWMS and SAP has reduced duplication of efforts. We stopped using manual stock card and use iWMS to manage our inventory and papers flowing through departments have reduced drastically. KEYfields has delivered on their promise.”

Kenny Tan, GM for KEYfields, comments, “CLLS is a company that heavily engaged in technologies to run its business. As a distributor, the heart of CLLS business is it warehouse operations and being in the parts business, speed is the essence when managing the warehouse operations. The CLLS project was a challenging one. Not only we need to interface real time with SAP for both inbound and outbound operations, These interfaces together with the iWMS implementation was delivered in 5 months which coincide with the commencement of the Carousel system operations. I am glad that both CLLS and KEYfields project teams had demonstrated their commitments, team work and professionalism to successfully deliver the project on time and on target. ”
