Deployment Set for Seven Sites

HighJump Software, a 3M company, a global provider of adaptable, supply chain execution solutions, today announced that Fuji Xerox Australia has selected the HighJump Supply Chain Advantage suite to optimize its nationwide distribution operations. Fuji Xerox, the largest provider of printers, multifunction devices, document management software and consumable supplies in Australia, will implement the HighJump solutions in seven sites across the country.

Faced with increasing sales and volumes, Fuji Xerox had begun to encounter growing pains: limited visibility, laborious manual reporting and inventory inaccuracy in its supply chain operations. After an intensive vendor evaluation, the company chose HighJump Warehouse Advantage to tackle its supply chain challenges. Fuji Xerox plans to use its HighJump solutions to manage growth by simplifying labor-intensive processes, improving order fulfillment, and obtaining visibility throughout its supply chain.

HighJump Warehouse Advantage will track parts and finished devices using serial numbers from the point a production order is issued through production, storage and delivery. This serialization will play a key role in the company’s quality assurance efforts. Fuji Xerox will also utilize HighJump Software’s delivery and event management functionality to help ensure supply chain visibility extends to its drivers and technicians in the field.

“Fuji Xerox Australia is a leader in the Australian office equipment market. To stay ahead of the game and maintain our growth, we need a sharper, smarter supply chain,” said Ian Raeburn, national supply manager, Fuji Xerox Australia. “We have a complex supply chain, and HighJump Software provided an impressive set of options to improve our business.”

“We’re excited to add Fuji Xerox to our growing list of customers in Australia,” said Jim Walsh, vice president of International, HighJump Software. “HighJump Software looks forward to its role in Fuji Xerox’s strategic vision for its supply chain operations.”
