Liberty Cold Chooses Open Sky Group to Implement JDA Warehouse Management In Their Cool, New Facility
Raleigh, NC (PRWEB) March 08, 2016 -- Open Sky Group (Open Sky), a consulting company specializing in implementation of Warehouse Management System (WMS) software, and Liberty Cold, a brand new 3rd Party Public Refrigerated Warehouse, announce a successful implementation for JDA Warehouse Management.
Liberty Cold, located in Bolingbrook, IL, is a new division of West Liberty Foods, LLC. This refrigerated warehouse and distribution center consists of 20,000 pallet positions of multitemperature space, designed with food safety and food security in mind. The facility officially opened on February 1, 2016. The software project was under very tight timelines, beginning in late 2015 and going live in late January of 2016.
Tim Cox, Vice President of Liberty Cold, said, “Our goal is to leverage technology in our systems and buildings to bring value to clients and help identify opportunities in their supply chains. This has been my passion since I began in the industry over 15 years ago. I chose Open Sky Group to implement JDA Warehouse Management because of their implementation and integration expertise, their flexibility and the strength of the JDA software products. We’re focused on bringing flexibility to our clients and proactively addressing the variability in their demand. Open Sky and JDA have helped us achieve that goal.”
“We love working with growing companies like Liberty Cold and helping them to achieve their vision. This JDA Warehouse Management implementation was perfect for a tight timeline because it was a greenfield site; everything is new, no data to carry forward, etc., says Jason Yantiss, VP of Client Services at Open Sky Group. “We’re looking forward to continue to partner with Liberty Cold as they grow and expand.”
