Overview: When The Cooper Companies completes its most recent acquisition, its CooperVision unit will become the world's third-largest contact lens manufacturer and perhaps the fastest growing. To accommodate this growth - and to support CooperVision's commitment to superior customer service - the company needed to upgrade its ability to fill and deliver both domestic and international customer orders. Elements of the new solution include a voice-picking system from Voxware, Princeton, N.J.; a multi-station picking and packing system from Kewill Systems, Marlborough, Mass.; and a high-speed sorter from GBI Sorting Systems, Deerfield, Fla. CooperVision also doubled the size of its primary distribution center in Rochester, N.Y., where a Baan enterprise system provides warehousing and order processing functionality.
