Professional Installation Keeps Distribution Center Labeling Project on Track

ID Label Success Story
Industry: A leading brand in the sporting goods industry
Scope: 25,000 rack labels and aisle signs with professional installation

 

Challenge

A leading consumer goods company operates multiple distribution centers across North America. When the company built a replacement facility, the industrial engineering team required a labeling partner that could deliver high-quality products and a flawless installation, all while meeting a strict project schedule.

“We operate several large distribution centers in U.S. and Canada,” the industrial engineer explained. “On-time delivery is extremely important for our projects so that we keep to our scheduling. Product and service quality are equally important.

“When we contract installation, we prefer that our primary vendor self-performs the work, rather than subcontracting to a third party. That extra layer of communication complicates projects, which can disrupt our facilities’ operations during the installation.”

 

Having worked with ID Label on previous projects, the team knew they wanted a partner that was responsive, dependable, and capable of handling a scope much larger than before.

 

Solution

The company re-engaged ID Label to produce and install 25,000 custom rack labels for the new facility.

The industrial engineer explained, “We contacted ID Label in late February to put together an order. This project was larger than our last one a few years ago, so we also contracted them for the installation. We received the labels in April, and ID Label was flexible in scheduling installation for June.”

 

Results

The installation was completed in five days, exactly as planned, even when the project hit an unexpected delay.

“On our recent project, we misplaced the labels, which took a day to find. Despite the delay that we, and we alone caused, ID Label’s team still finished the project on schedule. ID Label is one of the few vendors I know of with a dedicated installation team, which sets it apart and makes it more valuable to us.”

 

The industrial engineer also praised the team’s responsiveness and communication, “ID Label is very responsive. Our rep does a great job, and I get monthly emails highlighting their different services.”

 

Outcome

The combination of durable, customized labeling products, a professional in-house installation crew, and on-time performance reinforced ID Label’s position as the company’s preferred labeling partner.

“ID Label is a good supplier that we intend to keep using for future projects. Its quality, professionalism, and reliability make it an easy choice.”
