Ehrhardt + Partner Solutions reviews business growth in Middle East

  • United Arab Emirates: Monday, November 09 - 2009 at 13:59
  • PRESS RELEASE

In 2009 EPS worked very hard on the construction of its new logistics training and warehouse technology centre at DLC.

With the new building, which the opening will happen in February 2010, EPSī prospective customers of the Middle East have the unique option to analyse their existing processes in a live environment as well as to test and get to know up-to-date technology. Despite their investments for a new logistics training centre, EPS has done some workshops by the beginning of the year to attract new knowledge concepts and standards for the Middle East. One of the objectives of the workshops is a funded training of skilled technical personnel for distribution centres in Middle East. This allows enterprises to adapt their logistic processes to international standards and regulations, the participants are taught basic warehouse processes by trainers with a consolidated logistical knowledge.

"Investments into most modern technologies are only as good as the educational status of the employees - long term growth can therefore only be realised with skilled personnel. The further trainings by Ehrhardt + Partner Solutions, realised in courses with different training contents and focuses, beginning with basic logistic knowledge up to highly qualified process details, communicate the necessary knowledge to optimise existing processes within a warehouse and to have a considerable saving in costs"


Hermann Ehrhardt, managing director of Ehrhardt + Partner Solutions, explains.

Besides the stunning participation on two exhibitions, Materials Handling, which EPS had a pleasure to make partnership with FAMCO, and Gitex technology week, the Technology Provider of the Year Award (SCATA) was collected by Ehrhardt + Partner Group for their leading Warehouse Management System LFS 400.

The EMKE-Group - one of the largest retail groups in the region and operator of the LuLu Hypermarkets - charged EPS with planning and realising three new warehouse sites in the Middle East. The company was not only responsible for the planning and the complete realisation of the project, but also developed the concept for racks and product areas. Those performances require qualified knowledge in the domain of warehouse management. "We selected the warehouse management system LFS 400 because of its flexibility and the user-friendly and customer-oriented solutions which meet all standards in our business. With the global experience and the German know-how of E+P, we could satisfy our customers", Mr. M.S. Madhava Rao, Head of IT of EMKE, explains.

"Through the implementation of the warehouse management system LFS 400, the EMKE Group guarantees a high accuracy of inventory and picking. The system optimises the utilisation of all warehouse resources, like for instance employees, storage technology and materials handling", Hermann Ehrhardt, Managing Director of Ehrhardt + Partner, explains the most important advantages of the solution. EMKE went live with the LFS 400 on the last 6th of October. And it practically changed the complete view EMKE had of warehousing.
