Our Approach

At New Dawn Supply Chain, our focus is on productized, ready-to-run software.

The heart of our software is a productized foundation. Our software is not an individually scratch-built special recipe or patchwork code segments from previous installs, but a thoughtfully orchestrated comprehensive package built from the ground up by some of the industry’s best minds to be painless and easy to install in any environment. What this means for you is that your installation is not tethered to just one software engineer who knows all of it’s secrets, but our entire team.

The New Dawn software, having gone through extensive emulation testing arrives on site “ready-to-run”. Typically, we can run test orders the day after arriving on site. This not only allows for quick and easy startup, but it enables our engineers to concentrate their efforts on user training in a live production environment.

Emulation

New Dawn conducts extensive real-world emulation before ever dispatching software into the field. Our emulation environment mimics the exact device interface formats that our WES will communicate with in the real world, to ensure that the software is configured exactly as it will be at startup. This allows our engineers to fully test the software at rates far exceeding what will be required for actual production. As a result, New Dawn can logically run millions of emulated test orders through the system and monitor the results to insure the system is performing as designed. During emulation, all User Interface screens are updated in real time, divert confirmations are recorded, and the results are analyzed exactly as they would be in the production environment.

This is the end of development in the field. No longer are there 4-6 programmers closeted in a conference room doing last minute programming changes on-site.

In addition, New Dawn can provide the customer with the emulator package that was build for their system. This fully functional test system can be used to test future changes or train new associates – dramatically reducing the risk of errors possible in a live production environment.
