Read an excerpt from "Building Your Distribution Center with Vision and a Solid Foundation" below.
"For Distribution Center managers, creating the Vision, or at least a rough understanding of the Vision, should not be a daunting task. It first starts with understanding the market that is served and the sales channel used to serve that market. That's right, the Vision must be customer focused and not internally focused. For example, a customer focused Vision in the health care supply industry using a Direct to Consumer sales channel might include 100% Order Accuracy or Zero-Defect Shipments. On the other hand, a non-customer focused Vision might include 100% Inventory Accuracy, unless of course an improperly accounted inventory negatively affects the customer more than it does the inventory manager (I doubt it). Again, the Vision must be in line with the demands of the market."

Help Put a Spark in the Steps of Area Foster Children
2011-03-14
Having cold toes, cramped feet and wet socks is no way to start the day. Unfortunately, for many foster children who enter a foster home with only the clothes on their back, this may be a reality as they are given hand-me-down shoes, or funds get allocated to replenish the many other items a growing child needs. That's why Sleep Train strives to put a spark in their step with its annual Shoe Drive for Foster Kids. Starting today, March 14, the company is seeking donations of new sneakers, boots and dress shoes for area foster children at any Sleep Train store.

2011-03-14
Pregnancy is meant to be a joyous time however some women experience overwhelming 'baby blues' before the birth of their child.

Taking tamoxifen to prevent breast cancer can save lives and money
2011-03-14
Tamoxifen, taken by certain women as a preventive measure against breast cancer, saves lives and reduces medical costs. That is the conclusion of a new study published early online in CANCER, a peer-reviewed journal of the American Cancer Society.
