R2 certification, short for Responsible Recycling, is a globally recognized standard for electronics recycling and refurbishment. To become R2 certified, organizations must undergo a rigorous auditing process conducted by accredited certifying bodies. This process involves demonstrating compliance with a set of stringent requirements encompassing environmental, health and safety, quality, and data security standards. Organizations must implement robust management systems, adhere to strict operational protocols, and undergo regular audits to maintain R2 certification.

At PTS Corp, we understand the intrinsic value of R2 certification. It plays a pivotal role in promoting sustainability within the dynamic realm of reverse logistics.

At PTS Corp, we are not just a third-party logistics provider; we are committed to revolutionizing the industry through innovative strategies.

The Five S system, originally developed in Japan and later translated and expanded for international use, is an ever-changing organizational model that allows employees to constantly improve the effectiveness and efficiency of their work space. To put it simply, “there’s a place for everything and everything goes in it’s place.

5S System: Sort, Set In Order, Shine, Standardize, and Sustain

The first 'S' is to Sort, facilitating the removal of unnecessary items from workspaces, eliminating clutter, and optimizing resource allocation.

The second step, Set In Order, focuses on arranging tools and materials in an organized manner, reducing the time spent searching for items and enhancing overall workflow. At PTS, you will find multicolored tape surrounding all pieces of equipment, tools, bins, tables, etc. This allows our employees to quickly notice when anything is out of place.

Shine, the third 'S,' emphasizes the importance of cleanliness, not only contributing to a safer work environment but also fostering a sense of pride and ownership among employees.

Standardize, the fourth 'S,' establishes uniform practices throughout the organization, ensuring consistency and efficiency across processes.

Finally, Sustain, the fifth 'S,' emphasizes the need to instill these practices as a part of the company culture, fostering continuous improvement and long-term success.

5S System In Practice: How does it improve the experience of PTS customers?

The 5S system at PTS Corp is more than just a framework; it's a commitment to improving safety, reducing defects, increasing production rates, and optimizing the utilization of assets. In embracing the 5S methodology, PTS Corp reiterates its dedication to providing top-notch logistics solutions that not only meet, but exceed the expectations of our clients.

Optimal Recovery

A recent survey by the National Retail Federation showed return rates at 16.5% in 2022, similar to 2021's 16.6%. During 2021, online shopping reached an all-time high due to COVID-19 safety measures. As return rates rise, returns management is no longer optional. High-tech manufacturers without strong reverse logistics processes may lose over 50% of returned inventory value, according to a UPS report.

In today’s growing e-commerce world, managing customer returns is essential to business operations. At PTS Corp, we develop controlled methods within your returns ecosystem. This ensures optimal product recovery and value retention.

Cost-free returns for customers does not equate to cost-free returns for the company. Inefficient returns processes show reduced profit by up to 30%. Our team of experts can outline tactical recovery plans to reduce your overspend and cut unnecessary costs that effect your bottom line.

Increase Velocity

Returns management speeds greatly impacts the ROI of a company as a whole. PTS is determined to increase your return rate and throughput to keep company turnaround times within the goals of your business.
