High-Performance Fabrics Manufacturer Rolls Forward With Better Inventory Control

For more than 60 years, Seaman Corporation’s high-performance fabrics have been used in a variety of ways ranging from liners and tarps to roofing systems and architectural structures. With inventory control and shipping activities spanning four warehouses, five additional facilities and three manufacturing plants, it’s vital that an accurate count of all available products is maintained. Orders, large and small, must be filled daily and accurately—averaging about 30,000 transactions per month. To meet these needs, Seaman Corporation recently upgraded their mobile computing hardware without reengineering their shipping and inventory control software, Satellite Forms.

“The Janam XP20s have scanning technology that is better than our previous systems, and they’re just a lot faster,” said Shawn Sulzener, Seaman Corporation. “The Janam XP20s outperform even on larger orders which include hundreds of rolls, so the memory and speed are definitely first class. That saves us enormous amounts of time especially because rekeying the information on the rolls decreases productivity.”
