International Automotive Components (IAC)
The International Automotive Components (IAC) Halewood site in Liverpool approached THINK following the successful WMS implantation at the companies Elmdon site in Birmingham. Originally warehousing and production were housed within one building, but IAC Halewood were looking to automate their manual replenishment process to provide a greater degree of control for how material is replenished from the warehouse to the assembly line. IAC required a robust process to ensure material stock levels were able to keep assembly on the shop floor moving.
