Amway executes digital transformation with JDA Software
The multi-billion dollar organisation Amway has executed a company-wide digital transformation with JDA Software.
Amway has standardised warehouse operations and increase order fulfillment effectiveness, which it says has resulted in “a superior customer experience”.
As part of the digitisation drive, Amway has implemented 50 strategic warehouse locations across the globe with JDA, and in the last four months alone, 28 warehouse sites went live in record speed in India.
Amway manufactures over 500 nutrition, beauty and home products globally, that are retailed by millions of Amway distributors across the world.
The regional Amway organisation makes use of services of distribution centers in Poland, Hungary, Ukraine, Greece, Turkey, India, the Netherlands, South Africa and Russia.
Amway embarked on a company-wide digitalisation strategy in 2008, selecting JDA as its cornerstone for warehouse management, and, more importantly, as the first major step in its digital transformation.
Amway has initially deployed JDA Warehouse Management in Russia, and since then, has grown its JDA footprint to a total of 50 warehouses, 28 of which are newly deployed in India.
