LOCATION INDUSTRY WEBSITE “Working with Distribu�on One and the ERP-ONE so�ware, we can now manage the fluctua�ons of our business needs. Repor�ng op�ons within the so�ware also allows us to analyze data and be logis�cally pro-ac�ve in an ever- changing industry.” — EDI & ERP-ONE Supervisor Naxos of America Founded in 1987, Naxos of America—the largest distributor of classical music CDs in North America—recognized that the industry was being revolu�onized around them with the rise of digital music technology. As a result, purchasing strategies have changed over �me necessita�ng the ability for quick transi�on. Naxos transformed their business model to offer both CDs and digital music while focusing on direct consumer rela�onships. Using ERP-ONE has allowed Naxos to speed up manual departmental processes through the lens of hyper-accuracy. As noted by the EDI & ERP-ONE Supervisor, “Ordering abili�es have developed from hand entering addresses, items, and shipping requests to literally being able to import the informa�on at the touch of a bu�on. This has increased the number of orders entered and processed daily, decreased the receipt �me, and increased customer sa�sfac�on.” Because of the increase in order processing, “Strategies were put into place that allowed our warehouse to pick mul�ple orders at once, reducing the processing �me.” As a result, Naxos saw their pick/pack efficiency rise an astonishing 400%. Having over 4 million pieces of inventory didn’t stop Naxos from achieving 99.8% accuracy with ERP-ONE. Due to the user-friendly design of ERP-ONE, Naxos was able to train part-�me warehouse personnel in just 45 minutes. The flexibility of the system made it easy to grasp and reduced the learning curve. The culmina�on of these new efficiencies allowed for major expansion including moving from a 15,000 square foot warehouse to one triple the size. Naxos is s�ll adding 5000 new SKUs a year as it con�nues to serve the classical music niche with its future-thinking strategy.
