Business Wire
Click Commerce, Inc. (Nasdaq:CKCM), a leading provider of on-demand
supply chain management solutions, has released MOVE version 8.1 of
its warehouse management software. MOVE 8.1 enables companies to
offer innovative value added services and provides support for
radio frequency identification (RFID) and voice-enabled operations
in the warehouse. MOVE 8.1's value added services provide companies
a way to differentiate from their competitors by offering their
customers unique capabilities. Some of these services include
customer personalization, complex final assembly and light
manufacturing operations, and support for reverse logistics
requirements in the service supply chain. This release also
provides RFID capabilities integrated with basic warehouse
operations such as receiving, putaway, picking and shipping, and is
an upgrade to the Intelligent Supply Chain solution offered by
Click Commerce. In partnership with Vue Technology, the Intelligent
Supply Chain is a cost-effective, RFID-integrated solution that
increases productivity and inventory accuracy in the warehouse. It
also enables the ability to pull inventory through the supply chain
network based on real-time demand demands to avoid stock-outs. The
solution is designed to deliver increased customer service levels,
and lower supply chain costs. In addition, the release further
enhances MOVE's voice functionality, which creates a dialogue
between warehouse employees and MOVE. MOVE 8.1 utilizes a
voice-directed interface that allows warehouse employees to speak
vital warehouse information about inventory operations into a
headset, rather than inputting the information into a cumbersome
hand-held device. The solution, which includes technology from
Vocollect, results in increased labor productivity, improved
inventory accuracy, and better safety for the company's warehouse
workers. Customers using the Click Commerce voice solution are
experiencing productivity improvements within a short period of
time. According to a September 2005 research article, "Talk to Me,
Supply Chain: Warehouse Workers Find Their Voice (Technology)," by
Greg Aimi of AMR Research, "Voice-directed work in the warehouse is
delivering direct benefit in increased productivity, inventory and
fulfillment accuracy, and workforce safety." "Our customers are
asking us to help them differentiate themselves, to help them find
additional ways to gain market share and grow sales," said Steve
Cole, senior vice president of product management. "MOVE 8.1 is a
direct response to these requests and offers a best-in-class
warehouse management solution that delivers value for our
customers." The new release integrates with the Click Commerce
Enterprise Service Bus (ESB). The ESB enables extensible markup
language (XML), electronic data interchange (EDI), or flat file
communications between the warehouse management system and external
systems. Most warehouse management solutions require a middleware
provider, which can be costly. With the Click Commerce ESB,
companies can easily integrate MOVE 8.1 with other applications.
The solution is based on open standards, which enables it to be
modified to meet a customer's specific needs. The Click Commerce
ESB uses Service Oriented Architecture (SOA), which enables
composite applications. The ESB integrates Click Commerce
applications to work as a suite of products. It leverages web
services and Business Process Execution Language (BPEL) to
orchestrate the flow of information between Click Commerce
applications. "With the Click Commerce ESB, companies can integrate
Click Commerce solutions according to their own business processes,
instead of being forced to work in a predefined framework," said
Cole. Click Commerce will introduce MOVE 8.1 at
Distribution/Computer Expo 2006 in Chicago, May 24-25, at Navy
Pier. For more information, visit Click Commerce at booth #1249.
