...Helping you meet the challenge
Kitting and sequencing becomes more pervasive with every new vehicle program. It is an extremely difficult logistical challenge for parts suppliers that requires the dedication of large amounts of capital and human resources. KACE will help you meet this challenge by providing the technology and labor expertise required to service the OEMs.
KACE currently sequences 1,000,000 parts each month for DaimlerChrysler's Jeep Liberty program in Toledo, OH. Our second sequence center will open in Shreveport, LA during the spring of 2003 for General Motors.
Along with our transportation, packaging, and technology partners, KACE can provide a totally integrated logistical solution that gets parts batch-built in your plant transported, kitted, repackaged, and sequenced to your customer. Our services include:
- Long and short hauls from manufacturers' dock to our sequence center

- Light assembly and inspection
- Part, kit, and sequence validation using hand-held barcode scanners and wireless data collection
