Bullet Express signs WMS deal with Microlistics

Glasgow-based 3PL Bullet Express is to deploy a Microlistics Warehouse Management System (WMS) as it plans for growth driven by demand from the pharmaceutical and e-commerce sectors.

David McCutcheon, MD at Bullet Express, said: “Implementing a top-tier warehouse management system is the logical next step for Bullet Express as we continue to grow and form partnerships with clients in new industries. Microlistics WMS will enable us to implement detailed task management via our existing RF device network, helping us to deliver faster, more efficient services to our customers.”

Warehouse manager at Bullet Express Charles Mooney said his team would be retiring a variety of legacy processes involving paperwork and manual data entry.

“It will change the day-to-day work of our team with much less paper and manual data entry. We’ll be able to achieve better stock rotation and task efficiency. The team are looking forward to the change.”

Microlistics MD Mark Dawson said: “We’re pleased our Express offering – the software and the expertise that comes with it – is resonating with clients such as Bullet Express and we look forward to working with such a terrific strategic partner in Scotland.”

The announcement was made at materials handling and intralogistics exhibition IMHX, which takes place at the NEC in Birmingham between 24th and 27th September.
