Salt Lake City, UT -- (SBWire) -- 02/27/2018 --Hoj Engineering designed the new distribution center at Big Agnes. The Colorado-based company, located in the Rocky Mountains, creates innovative tents, sleeping pads, bags, camping accessories, and apparel for outdoor adventures in specialty backpacking stores.

The Hoj Engineering evaluated the Big Agnes business and provided a range of space needed, including square footage of building, as well as clear height, pallet spaces, and other specifications.

According to Tim Hoj, CEO of Hoj Engineering, "Our innovations team, led by Robert Lyon, provides consultative solutions, from a basis of data analysis of the stock units that a business is processing. We take annual data, in the form of transaction history, inventory level snap shots, and seasonality to determine a few critical factors, such as the amount of cubic space needed, total pallet capacity, and how will they process the order profiles with the best efficiency."

Chris Tamucci, Director of Operations for Big Agnes shared how the challenges of growth were handled with the help of Hoj Engineering. The solution involved key software, WarehouseOS in a NetSuite environment, along with all Hoj's material handling equipment.

WarehouseOS, a tablet-based Warehouse Operations System, brings technology to warehouses. WarehouseOS and associated apps have been developed to make everything about the warehouse easier and better. Apps allow small or large companies to receive products, manage inventory, perform cycle counting, conduct single picks or do batch picking, verify items picked, and pack them into boxes.
