Apex Real Time Solutions, a local warehousing management solutions provider, has partnered with One Channel, Africa's fastest growing ERP service provider. Apex specialises in implementing a range of warehouse management system (WMS) solutions that take distribution to the next level.

As the leading WMS experts, Apex offers solutions that provide key business information needed to make informed management decisions. It focuses exclusively on supplying consultancy, business process improvement and warehouse management system implementations to companies who manage stock through warehouse and distribution centres.

Apex CEO Alan Richard believes the One Channel model is ideally positioned to assist in providing Apex with the marketing expertise and reach that well help them reach new customers and provide a greater impact on businesses throughout Africa.

"We also believe that the business approach of One Channel is directly aligned with ours, which is to provide solutions to our customers that raise their standards and provide them with significant advantages in what can be a very competitive world," he explains.

One Channel CEO Bernard Ford says Apex does not push any single software solution, but rather helps companies in the correct selection and deployment of a WMS. "With clients like Vodacom, Cell C, Ram Couriers, Bic and Spar, what more can one say. Apex helps our clients improve their warehousing systems and processes so that they can become truly world-class."

He says the traditional service provider model forces customers to make a choice of only one vendor and in the process, they often compromise skills as suppliers cannot be masters of all the disciplines surrounding modern business software and systems. “One Channel only uses qualified experts when implementing systems. It manages the implementation of any new component and ensures that customers get what they paid for.”

"In order to provide you with the best possible solution we have selected partners who provide a range of high quality systems that allow us to offer you the solution that meets your precise business needs. Our partner’s solutions can accommodate in both price and complexity every conceivable warehousing requirement from small manual warehouses to some of the largest and most complex facilities in the world," Richard adds.

Apex takes the risk out of the project by committing to fixed price implementations, allowing customers to budget and plan with confidence.

"We can do this because our team have years of experience in implementing warehouse and IT solutions for a wide range of customers and industries," he concludes.
