Helping you make good on your promise to deliver the goods

Ah, the world of consumer goods.

Speak with us

Welcome to the tricky dance of managing increased consumer demand, labor shortages, tracking inventory, and other supply chain woes.

The rise and fall of customer demand can make your inventory and labor needs look like a ping pong ball on a windy day. Accurately predicting customer demand is critical for consumer goods companies. False forecasts can lead to shortages or excess inventory, overstaffing or overtime.

Here’s what some of our customers in the Consumer Goods industry have to say about Rebus:

“Rebus offers a lot more than the standard LMS on the market; it drives additional warehouse opportunities beyond measurements against engineered standards. You can compare warehouses and networks against each other, gain deep-dive views into inventory, and see in real-time how your network is performing.”

Erin Mitchell

Head of North American Warehousing, Kraft Heinz

“Rebus solved in 2 weeks what internal teams had been trying to solve for over 2 years.”

Industry-Leading Global Food Manufacturer

“If Rebus were no longer available, I would be looking to Longbow Advantage to offer something even better. Rebus has raised the bar to the point where I would not be looking to the standard labor management systems on the market today, but would be looking for something new that I haven’t seen before.”

Head of North American Warehousing, Global Food Manufacturing Company

“Having Rebus during a WMS go-live is like night and day compared to before we used Rebus. Using Rebus made it very easy to determine warehouse productivity by the hour, shift, in real-time, and immediately identify any productivity dips when we started using the new WMS version. I will never go live with WMS without Rebus again.”

Senior Director of Supply Chain for Global Consumer Packaging Manufacturer

“If Rebus were no longer available, I would be looking to Longbow Advantage to offer something even better. Rebus has raised the bar to the point where I would not be looking to the standard labor management systems on the market today, but would be looking for something new that I haven’t seen before.”

It all starts with real-time visibility. This is the backbone of the Rebus Platform. You can’t afford to wait until tomorrow’s productivity reports. In today’s supply chain, even end of shift is too late. The future of data visibility is real-time access from anywhere in the world.

  • Connect disparate systems. Sit back, let Rebus do the translating for you.
  • Platform agnostic. It doesn’t matter where your data lives, Rebus can get it.

3PL Billing

Simplify your billing with Rebus.

  • Group Functional Areas to different cycles. e.g. Monthly Cycle for Storage, Weekly for Receiving
  • Map billing events to charges flexibly
  • Build reports directly in Rebus
  • Automate the invoice approval process

eBOL

Where’s that bill of lading again? Oh, that’s right, it’s safely stored in the cloud. If you’ve ever had to search through a pile of crumbled, torn, smudged paper BOLs, then you we feel your pain. We’ve been there. And if you’ve ever realized that one has been lost…

That’s why we made Rebus eBOL. And we designed it to integrate seamlessly with Smart BOL.

  • Integrates Rebus with SmartBOL for seamless access
  • IT team doesn’t need to setup BOLs in the WMS
  • Allows the warehouse to move from paper-based BOLs to a completely digitized process with little to no human intervention
  • Users can historically retrieve and view all BOLs
