CEVA brings IT to bear on Western Power contract

Warehouse management system at centre of extended relationship

 

CEVA Logistics has put its implemented its Matrix WMS (warehouse management system) at the pivot point of a new five year deal with Western Power.

CEVA operates out of the Western Australian government-owned energy provider’s main distribution centre in Jandakot and its regional and metropolitan depots and has partnered Western Power for 10 years.

“Armed with a decade of specialist knowledge from working together, our team members have worked diligently to deliver on Western Power’s needs,” CEVA Australia and New Zealand MD Carlos Velez Rodriguez says.

“We believe, the introduction of Matrix WMS is the start of a new long-term strategic relationship between our two organisations.”

The implementation of Matrix WMS was “key” to supporting and developing Western Power’s future supply chain strategy.

The system aims to deliver further functional improvement, better stock visibility and tighter controls which together drive increased logistics productivity. 

“We recognise these complex projects do not happen through good luck but through a methodical approach requiring careful planning, constant dialogue and in depth testing,” Western Power supply chain manager Colin Davis says.

“It was a great collaborative effort, which supports our focus on improving our business efficiency to better serve our customers.”

In addition to warehousing, transport, depot management and reverse logistics CEVA also provides value added services including cable cutting and coiling, evidence retention, ‘pole to hole’ management, bundling of transformer returns, emergency call-outs and quarantine management, CEVA notes.
