PHOENIX - (BUSINESS WIRE) - AFS Technologies, a leading provider of business enterprise and on demand software solutions, announced the selection of the Priya Enterprise Warehouse Management System (WMS) and the AFS Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) business automation solutions for the Commonwealth of Virginia's Distribution Center (VDC). With close to 1,000 items, the Commonwealth of Virginia's Distribution Center is a 128,000 square foot facility that provides government agencies with high-quality products and services that serve the commissary needs of state-run institutions.

Designed specifically for distribution centers, the Priya Enterprise WMS solution offers features that include integrated RF, barcode scanning and hands-free voice technology that eliminate paper and data entry errors. Combined with an intuitive user interface, the Priya WMS solution reduces labor costs, improves inventory control and increases transaction accuracy. AFS Technologies' business automation solutions will help state officials optimize the labor force, reduce overall costs and enhance productivity within the four walls of the state's distribution warehouse.

"Our feature-rich, best-in-class ERP, WMS and order management solutions (OMS) provide customers the ability to enter orders themselves from any location with Internet access. Key features of this solution enable state-run agencies to quickly and accurately allow their customers to enter orders, view past order history and check inventory levels in real time," states Carl McCauley, Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing at AFS Technologies.

He adds, "The State of Virginia's Distribution Center will improve total traceability of all products and maximize order accuracy. Access to this real-time information will improve overall customer satisfaction, a key component in the state's decision to go with AFS Technologies."

The benefits of a fully integrated ERP and WMS system from one vendor provide improvements in visibility of all areas of the process, including production, inventory and financial data. These improvements make it easier to identify opportunities for a reduction in operating costs and an increase in efficiencies. The Priya Enterprise WMS solution combined with AFS ERP will improve overall warehouse efficiency and reduce the potential for lost or misplaced inventory.

Total traceability is a key goal to the success of the Commonwealth of Virginia's Distribution Center, and AFS Technologies' innovative solutions will ensure that Virginia achieves this goal. With a complete suite of business applications, including ERP, WMS, Sales Force Automation (SFA), and Business Intelligence (BI) tools, AFS Technologies will play a key role in helping the Virginia government to maximize its investment in technology and meet the demands of state-run institutions in a timely and cost effective manner.
