DCS Group expanded operations with a new 200,000 sq ft Banbury distribution center and entered the pharmaceutical sector. The company required a WMS capable of integrating with its ERP, supporting FEFO stock rotation, maintaining 360-degree traceability, and meeting Good Distribution Practice standards. Socius24 delivered JDA WMS at both the original Warwickshire site and the new Banbury facility, plus a User Service Portal for customer visibility. Post-implementation, DCS Group achieved improved productivity, real-time alerts, and complete audit trails.
