GUESS? Warehouse Management System Implementation Case Study
Case study of GUESS? implementing Manhattan Associates Warehouse Management to expand distribution network, improve accuracy, and reduce costs across multiple global facilities.
GUESS? replaced a single overloaded Los Angeles DC with a multi-site network including Louisville, Montreal, Hong Kong, and Shanghai. Manhattan Associates Warehouse Management enabled real-time inventory tracking, multi-channel order segregation, and integration with host systems Jesta and JDA. Results included 83% reduction in inventory cycle time, 30-40% annual shipping growth, and $1.3 million annual handling cost savings.
Single WMS platform across four DCs and two 3PL sites delivered consistent global operations
Inventory accuracy improved significantly with real-time unit-level tracking
Physical inventory cycle time reduced from three days to 12 hours
30-40% year-over-year shipping volume growth supported without proportional labor increase
Multi-channel inventory segregation enabled separate wholesale and retail P&L management
