An interview with Scott McNalis, Programmer/Analyst at Alpha Distribution Solutions

Blogs

Scott Picture.jpg

Q) How long have you been working for Alpha?
A) 9 years

How/when did you become interested in pursuing a career in IT/programming?
I actually started programming on my own at home when I was still in middle school.  A friend and I wanted to learn so we could create our own computer game.  The game idea didn’t last, but they started offering programming classes in high school and I haven’t stopped learning since.  I actually started college majoring in Chemistry and realized I liked programming better, so I switched schools to get a programming degree instead.

What has been the most exciting/rewarding project you have worked on at Alpha?
That would probably be the interface between our computer system and our main customer.  It was a large project that presented a lot of new and different challenges that took some creative thinking to overcome.  It was also a lot of fun to work with the different consultants that were all working on the project as well.  I got to learn from some people who have worked in the field for a long time and at the same time I got to teach them a couple of tricks of my own.

What do you enjoy most about working at Alpha?
The variety of projects.  Because the IT department here is small, I don’t just work on one thing all the time, which I think would get boring. Sometimes I work on new technology for receiving, sometimes it’s solving the puzzle of a bug in the current shipping software, but every day is a new and different challenge.

What challenges do you and other programmers/analysts encounter in the logistics industry and how do you overcome them?
Technology is always changing and so our customer’s requirements are always changing as well.  I think we are all challenged with finding ways to improve how we do things or to find new ways to accomplish those same tasks.  I think that feedback from the users as well as taking time to think things through helps to minimize or eliminate challenges when working on improvements or changes.

Do you see the role of programmers/analysts evolving in the logistics industry?  If so, how? 
In a world where technology is always changing and evolving the role of the people who work with that technology closely is also going to be changing and evolving. With technology taking over in more and more areas and processes becoming more automated, I would think that we would take a larger role in every area.  If not as a programmer, then as a system analyst to determine how to use the technology to its fullest and most effective.

Improve Your Returns Process, Improve Your Customer’s Experience

Blogs, ,

As online shopping continues to grow, so has the importance of managing returns.  In our digital world, returns are an inevitable part of e-commerce business and a critical point of customer interaction.  Many companies see 20-30% of orders being returned and according to UPS, 62% of customers returned or exchanged an item in 2013.   So how can retailers reduce returns while improving customer service?

Return Experience

Customers return items for many reasons.  The product may be defective, a wrong size, an unwanted gift, or they may have just changed their mind.  Whatever the cause, customers want a simple flexible return process.  This can include having a return label packaged with the original shipment or an easy to print label from your website.

Customers also want the choice to either return products to the store or return by mail.  The return policy should be easy to find, with simple clear instructions detailing what steps need to be taken and if any timeframes or fees are involved.  There should not be any surprises during the returns process.  Give customers what they want and it’s been proven that they are more likely to be repeat customers and refer their friends.

Role Of Your Third Party Logistics Provider

Your distribution center can make or break your return logistics.  It’s important to choose the correct 3PL and work with them to guarantee your returns process.

The distribution center’s employees and processes are the first defense in reducing returns.  Employees can inspect items to check if product is damaged or broken when it arrives to the warehouse, notifying you of any issues.  When the item is picked and packed for shipment, the employee can again visually inspect the product to make sure it is in good condition, free of dirt or grime that might cause a customer to return the product and even make customers think less of your brand.

Standardized procedures should also be in place when shipping the original package and when processing a return.  Practices such as scanning and auditing can ensure items are picked and packed accurately.  When an item is returned to the warehouse, processes should be in place to inspect items and return them to inventory as fast as possible.

Third party logistics providers that are able to provide value added services can greatly improve the reverse logistics process.  These 3PLs can repackage goods or make repairs.  This saves the retailer from counting products as a loss or having to ship them to another location for refurbishing.  The product is put back into inventory more quickly and is available for reorder.

Returns are a crucial part of e-commerce.  It is up to the retailer to determine the best returns process for their business model and customers.  The right distribution partner will be able to help determine the best practices and deliver results.
