INDIANAPOLIS (August 8, 2016) - enVista, a leading, global supply chain consulting and IT services firm, announced today it has been selected by Kayco to implement the HighJump™ Warehouse Advantage warehouse management system (WMS). Kayco, the nation’s leading Kosher food distribution organization, selected enVista based on its positive experience working with the partner on previous projects, including facility design and WMS selection processes, as well as enVista’s experience implementing HighJump solutions for food distributors.
enVista consultants led a WMS systems evaluation and selection process in early 2016 for Kayco, which resulted in Kayco selecting HighJump’s enterprise WMS. Kayco chose this solution based on the supply chain technology provider’s vast experience with food distributors in the northeast and the system’s ability to grow and scale with Kayco’s business.
HighJump WMS is uniquely suited for the food distribution industry, providing out-of-the-box capabilities for track, trace and recall management as well as optimizing temperature-controlled storage. Additionally, HighJump WMS is recognized as the most flexible enterprise WMS in the market, allowing food distributors to manage ever-changing regulations for safe food handling and regulatory reporting.
“enVista was an impressive partner in our facility design project, and we feel confident enVista has helped us find the right warehouse technology for the next phase of our supply chain transformation,” Kayco Chief Operating Officer Yisroel Rubelow said. “We are eager to update our technology and improve our operations with the help of enVista, and we know this implementation will position our company for further growth.”
Davison Schopmeyer, managing partner, supply chain services at enVista, said, “enVista brings a wealth of experience with HighJump software and a long history of success working with HighJump clients on a wide range of supply chain projects. We are pleased to be selected as Kayco’s HighJump WMS implementation partner. We look forward to initiating this implementation to address Kayco’s requirements and long-term growth plans.”
