Fleming Furniture Stores
Ashley Furniture Home Store of Paducah, KY
Dan Bolger developed a plan to meet short term needs initially and designed a new facility to support our Ashley Furniture Home Store and Fleming Furniture stores. We have a clear competitive advantage with the distribution center and management processes used throughout. Sales volume increased in double digits the first year. There is no way we could have delivered that volume without the new facility and the operating procedures he helped us put into place. Dan's services are recommended to improve daily operations as well as facilities.

Than you for the excellent work and guidance you provided with the recent construction of my new warehouse facility. In retrospect I can't imagine building it on my own as I had planned before atteding your seminar at the Las Vegas Market. That's where I realized I needed some expert advice. I really appreciate your knowledge, experience and professionalism. One thing that really hellped was your quick response to all my needs and concerns. The fact that I could reach you whenever needed was a great help. We are now moved in and enjoying the new facility. Our efficiency has improved immensely thans to you. I am thrilled with the results.

Thanks for all of your assistance and guidance on the 130,000 square foot Trivett project. We have achieved over 50% energy savings in order to capture maximum tax credits through EPACT 2005! We are very excited about this and are using it as our new standard for all warehouse and distribution centers in the future.

Dan provided professional advice for the original design of our distribution center in 1999, subsequent expansion, and annual operations consulting. Continuous improvement in our distribution operations is a direct result. His advice has included implementing RF bar coding, process improvement in prep areas, performance metrics to evaluate warehouse performance and strategic planning services. The net result is our ability for efficient merchandise distribution to our three new stores and our customers.

Dan put a lot of hard work you put into our transportation project. He has a deep knowledge of logistics and is an expert on the industry. His dispassionate outside viewpoint has helped us make improvements to Michigan’s library materials delivery system.
Paul Sherman

Dan has a great depth of knowledge regarding warehousing and distribution processes, allowing him to go beyond good facility design to recommendations on specific job processes that maximize quality of service and labor savings. His no-nonsense attitude and willingness to frankly critique current operations expedite the process of improving the critical area of product handling, distribution and delivery. Dan’s help with our new Peoria, IL distribution center prevented countless design errors, and helped make a merely “good” facility a great one.
