Descartes, a leading provider of mobile solutions to improve collaboration between retailers and their logistics service providers, introduces the BearWare Retail Scanning Suite (RSS). RSS is a mobile application to scan cartons at each point from the distribution centers through to the store front. Carton-level tracking complements shipment-level tracking and helps pro-actively identify potential inventory replenishment for each store, reduces theft and claims for lost cartons, and streamlines shipment payment. It also supports 3rd-party pool distribution, which helps retailers to reduce logistics costs and minimize store disruptions by eliminating unconsolidated direct shipments from suppliers and retailer distribution centers into the stores.


The BearWare system is being used by leading retailers, including L Brands, Restoration Hardware and GNC to save money, support loss prevention programs and improve delivery operations effectiveness. Though free to install, this software requires a license to use. Visit the BearWare website at http://www.bearwareinc.com or contact us directly at https://www.descartes.com/contact.
