MOTEK® REDUCES WMS IMPLEMENTATION PROCESS TO 22 EVENTS IN 40 DAYS
Motek's Tycan implementation process delivers a fully functional system 40 calendar days after contract is signed.

Beverly Hills, CA (October 25, 2000): Motek®, the developer of the award winning Priya warehouse management system, (WMS) beat it's previous 60 day software implementation record by installing Priya in 40 days. To make this possible Motek reduced its Tycan® implementation process to 22 events. The company underwent extensive internal training to ensure that everyone understood the new streamlined approach.

"Our last implementation went live without requiring overtime or weekend work 40 calendar days after the customer signed the contract." said Motek's Project Manager Dawn Stramer who managed the installation. Dawn credits preparation and a bullet proof process as the reason she was able to beat industry standards. "We delivered a full featured WMS in record time under budget" said Stramer.

"The 6 to 12 month WMS industry standard implementation cycle is unacceptable to both Motek and our customers" said Ann Price, Motek CEO. "In an industry where vendors over promise and under deliver Motek developed the first WMS implementation methodology 7 years ago." said Price.

Tycan is Motek's unique 22 event implementation plan. Tycan distills over 10 years of WMS project management experience into a cook book approach. Tycan employs a web based tool to communicate project deliverables and their status in real time. Once an initial site goes live, Motek's customers use Tycan to install Motek's Priya WMS independently in their remaining facilities.
