With a single 5900 mm high Modula Lift ML 75 D and 46 drawers inside to store over $2.5 million worth of products and components that can now be stored safely, cleanly and fully under control.
South Coast Controls, an Orange County-based systems integration company, specializes in the design and manufacture of electrical control panels. Founded in 1976, the company has expanded its services to include a pneumatic division for compressed air equipment and a robotics division. With continued growth, the company faced the challenge of expanding production within its existing facility. It faced the prospect of having to purchase additional real estate at a significant cost or find a more economical solution to accommodate its growing inventory.
South Coast Controls Chooses Modula VLM to Expand Production Without Buying New Real Estate: The Success of an Inventory Management Solution
With limited space and the high cost of real estate, South Coast Controls chose to purchase 2 Modula Vertical Lift Modules (VLM) to optimize inventory management and maximize efficiency with integrated Modula WMS software. With the ability to securely inventory products and restrict access to authorized personnel, the Modula systems provided advanced control over inventory management processes.
Since implementing the 2 Modula VLMs, South Coast Controls has seen significant improvements in productivity and efficiency. With all inventory stored in one central location, the company has reduced the risk of material loss and minimized downtime associated with searching for items. The Modula system has become an invaluable tool for streamlining operations, providing a substantial return on investment and positioning South Coast Controls for future growth.
“If we had not chosen Modula, the other option was to purchase another building. We would definitely recommend another company to invest in a Modula unit. Whether they want to save space, save time, or improve picking.”
