SCS Refrigerated Services Selects Motek's® Priya®


Market leader at forefront of trend to replace legacy systems with Motek's full-featured, dynamic WMS.

BEVERLY HILLS, CA - January 14, 2008 - Continuing to drive market trends, SCS Refrigerated Services, LLC, an early adopter of Warehouse Management Systems (WMS), selected Motek's® Priya® to replace their existing WMS system which didn't meet their needs in its 277,000 square foot Algona, 135,000 square foot Tacoma, and 100,000 square foot Seattle facilities. SCS Refrigerated Services, a market leader in integrated cold storage, refrigerated warehouse space and distribution, selected Priya, to aid in providing exceptional, real-time service to customers, reduce labor costs, and support their expanding business.

"SCS, like many market leaders, are turning to Priya a true, off-the-shelf solution to replace outdated technology that requires ongoing development, extensive customization, and constant maintenance," said Motek CEO Ann Price.

Priya was selected for its breadth of capabilities, its flexibility, reports and audit trails, system accuracy, and ability to see the status of products and orders in real-time. "Priya is a technology investment, not a technology purchase," said Cindy Kroeger, SCS Refrigerated Services' controller. "To ensure our technology grows along with us we selected Motek for its commitment to product over services and custom solutions knowing a product focused company will give us a strong edge over our competition. "SCS will leverage Priya's picking and interleaving features and RF capabilities to speed picking and put-away processes, streamlining the delivery of products, increasing efficiencies, and driving accuracy to record levels. "Our existing system lacked the measurement tools, capabilities and reports we expected from a mature WMS system," said Mike Hill, SCS Refrigerated Services' IT manager. "We know Priya will help boost productivity in our warehouse through automation and elimination of manual processes."

About Motek (motek.com)

Founded in 1991, Motek is the warehouse management software technology leader. Motek's single, all-inclusive product, Priya, is the only Tier 1 Microsoft Windows®-based WMS available today. Priya manages and tracks all warehouse activity, inventory, equipment, and operators in real time with the use of wireless radio frequency computers, voice technology, and Engineered Labor Standards. Because it runs on Windows, Motek's solution is cost-effective for the 50,000 square foot warehouse, yet powerful enough to handle the 1,000,000+ square foot warehouse. Motek's reputation for innovation began when the Smithsonian Institute recognized it for being the first RF WMS on a PC. Since then, Motek has been the first WMS on Windows, the first WMS with real-time engineered labor standards, and the first Windows WMS with voice recognition.
