Kennametal Inc. is a leading global supplier of tooling, engineered components and advanced materials that are consumed in production processes. Kennametal needed to replace its outdated Warehouse Control System (WCS) with a more reliable and robust alternative in order to support its rapid business growth.

Kennametal selected Fortna to install and support FortnPlus™, its universal WCS. FortnaPlus's advanced systems architecture provided the immediate stability and robust data handling that could successfully process the growing number of orders and interface with SAP. FortnaPlus also provided huge cost savings by significally reducing system downtime. Furthermore, Kennametal also found FortnaPlus much easier to operate, which greatly increased productivity.
