Industrial Distribution Case Studies

See Our Industrial Distribution Solutions

Industrial Distribution manage the distribution of industrial equipment, parts and components helping to support industrial, commercial or personal operations through bulk shipments, individual parts or kitting. This often requires on-site storage and flexibility to efficiently handle parts assembly, bundling or unique packaging.

Featured Case Study: SMC

SMC Corporation, a manufacturer of automatic control equipment, had goals for its North American headquarters to reach $1 billion (and eventually $2 billion) in revenue, but their existing distribution center in Indianapolis had become obsolete. SMC approached long-time partner Bastian Solutions for help selecting and planning their new facility. The result is a new 1.1 million-sf facility that has more than doubled picking speed and allowed for 93% of orders to be shipped same-day, providing a huge benefit to customers.
