Designed Conveyor Systems (DCS)

Founded in 1982 in Franklin, Tennessee, we are a systems integrator that doesn’t tie ourselves to specific brands. We provide custom full-scale warehouse designs and software for e-commerce, multi-channel fulfillment, parcel handling, and various distribution needs. We work with mid-market companies scaling their fulfillment operations, as well as large distribution centers for national retailers and parcel carriers.

Our services include consulting, engineering design, project management, installation, and client support. We offer material handling solutions for everything from last-mile delivery and goods-to-person order fulfillment to reverse logistics, dark distribution centers, and micro-fulfillment centers. We also develop the DATUM software, which includes Warehouse Control System (WCS) and Warehouse Execution System (WES) components.

We recently acquired a supply chain consulting group. This allows us to offer more comprehensive solutions, including operations analysis, process improvement, distribution design, and project execution. We source parts based on manufacturer specifications, always looking for the best price, lead time, and compatibility. We have completed over 1,500 projects and work with more than 650 vendors and subcontractors.

Our mission is to deliver the best customer and employee experience in the industry. We provide material handling solutions so our clients can consistently deliver on time. Our core values guide how we work:

• Be Reliable: We keep our commitments.
• Be Learning Oriented: We always look for ways to improve.
• Be Bold: We encourage speaking up and full commitment.
• Be Easy to Work With: We strive to be helpful and low-hassle.
• Be a Problem-Solver: Our first response is always to figure things out.

We employ over 350 professionals. Our culture is welcoming, supportive, and collaborative, like a family. We aim to provide the best possible experience for both our employees and customers. We support professional growth through training, mentorship, and advancement opportunities. Our employees often describe the environment as encouraging, challenging, and centered on teamwork and building strong relationships.

We have a casual work environment and offer flexible PTO. We also provide opportunities for community engagement and host company events and team-building activities.

We offer competitive benefits, including medical, dental, and vision coverage, with a generous employer contribution and options for additional coverage. Employees can use FSAs and HSAs.

We provide flexible paid time off (PTO) without accruals, 11 paid holidays, and paid FMLA leave. Our 401K program includes a 100% company match up to 5%, and employees participate in a profit-sharing program.

We support professional growth through our Education and Certification Assistance Programs. Other perks include quarterly company events, community outreach projects, team-building activities, a casual work environment, and a snack wall.
