“The SmartTurn WMS is directly responsible for helping us generate $7,000 to $12,000 in positive cash flow each quarter” - Kenny Gravitt, Managing Partner, GES.
In this case, DiCentral’s SmartTurn was used to enable two companies, a 3PL and a manufacturer, to work together.
Company Overview
Company Overview
Global Environmental Services (GES) provides secure data destruction, waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) recycling and eWaste processing, following a basic set of principles:
- Environmental Stewardship
- Exceptional Customer Service
- Economic Ethics
GES works with an extensive network of OEMs and product brokers on the recovery side of the electronics industry and provides accurate, up-to-the-minute pricing for used technology for any model configuration or condition of the equipment as well as at the component level. This network allows GES to provide consistent product availability and pricing information, which equates to the best possible value for our customers.
The Challenge - Improving Product Flow and Visibility
GES maintains a 70,000 square foot facility that is protected with multiple layers of electronic security, backed up by a state of the art infrared camera system throughout the campus. In GES’ industry, winning business means proving trustworthiness. Potential clients come to GES with electronic waste for disposal or recycling and in many cases, sensitive data encoded on electronics that require proper sanitizing. Typical electronic waste includes items as basic as old PCs/laptops, monitors, and memory components to more complex items including obsolete circuit boards and short-circuited transistors.
GES needed a solution that would:
- Manage to expand business services
- Improve product flow, tracking, and reporting
- Provide a warehouse management system that would offer a competitive advantage
- Integrate with existing systems like QuickBooks, Oracle, Net Suite, Peachtree, JD Edwards and Xelus
GES wanted to perfect its inventory management process so that the company could establish and document a chain of custody for all items that enter the facility.

Besides saving “GES $45,000 a year in spending, which by itself is a true measure of value”, according to Gravitt, SmartTurn’s WMS has become an effective sales tool to GES due to the powerful and robust set of features.
- Inventory processes in place that scale sales, services, and products
- Secure, reliable reporting and chain of custody
- An effective sales tool that has secured numerous OEM contracts
“However, the SmartTurn WMS goes one better because it is also directly responsible for helping us generate $7,000 to $12,000 in positive cash flow each quarter. While we go through the sales process with OEM customers to discuss GES, nothing is as powerful as when we show them the SmartTurn interface and they can visualize the functionality firsthand. And, once we discuss SmartTurn’s high-level of customer support, it only breeds more confidence in GES”, affirmed Kenny Gravitt, Managing Partner, GES.
