Learn from the best

By Martha Spizziri -- Modern Materials Handling, 4/1/1998

Turn to page 33 and you can read about this year's Productivity Achievement Award winners- Hewlett-Packard (our Manufacturing Award winner), Revlon (Warehousing), and Walt Disney World (Distribution). You'll find a short story describing the achievements of each of these innovative companies.

But there's more to each story-when you use the Web. The original case-history articles on these industry leaders, published last year, provide additional details about their operations. Space limitations keep us from publishing those stories again in their entirety, but you can read the original articles on our Web site-including the original 15-page story on Walt Disney World. Go to www.mmh.com and just click on the Productivity Awards icon on our home page to find them.

Much like reading these case histories, the North American Material Handling Show provides an opportunity to learn about innovations in materials handling-whether they be new products from equipment vendors, or new techniques or systems developed by academics, consultants, or materials handling professionals. If you didn't make it to the show-or if you just want to catch up on what you may have missed while there-take a look at our online coverage. Our exclusive online report on the show will be available on the site throughout April.

During April our discussion forum on choosing a returnables supplier also continues. The forum is moderated by Common Sense Handling columnist David Luton. If you have a question for him, simply click on the "Discussions" icon and submit it to the site.

Anyone who's under pressure to comply with customer specs on bar code labels will want to check in on the discussion on our sister site, ADC News & Solutions online www.adcnews.com. This month users are invited to share their problems and find solutions by networking online with other bar code users.
