To sustain that level of growth, Do it Best has committed $100 million in infrastructure investments to support its members’ needs. That includes a next-gen warehouse management system, a new distributed order management system, and a streamlined core financials package.
“We’re building out our capacity within our warehouse network, beginning with our Woodburn distribution center. Warehousing technology has continually advanced, and we’ve partnered with industry leaders to further enhance our operational excellence,” said Vice President of Logistics Tim Miller.
As part of the project, Do it Best is also increasing work and office space for their teams in both the warehouse and their regional lumber office as the company gears up for additional growth in hardlines and lumber and building materials.
“We’re committed to building and maintaining the facilities, equipment, and systems necessary to support all our members’ growth,” added Miller. “The Woodburn expansion is only one example of the investments we have underway to ensure we’re meeting their needs now and into the future.”
