Adding Value to Business Supply Chain
Accurate receiving through blind receiving process Received stock is visible and communicated to ERP immediately after it has been received Reduced receiving to ATP time - the system measures dwell times in receiving areas assisting managers to manage
time taken to get stock into active picking areas Stock identification and tracking - stock is labelled with bar coded labels in receiving Improved stock rotation - all stock received is automatically allocated a date & time stamp batch number (used to
ensure correct stock rotation) Accurate stock figures down to individual bin level are achieved through scanner confirmed put away, movement
and picking instructions that require the operator to scan both product & location and enter quantity. Easy to locate stock through stock on hand reports. The system will allocate oldest stock to outbound instructions. Accurate picking - system directed picking instructions and scanner confirmations ensure a high level of picking
accuracy Accurate shipping – scanner confirmed picking and checking processes result in accurate shipment of orders Quick & Accurate stock take – flexible generation of stock takes which can be released by area, isle, level, location
and are executed using scanners. Real time updates – updates on scanners ensure real time updates on the floor as well as automated updates into
the ERP. This eliminates the challenges created by delayed data capturing. Visibility – all operations can be viewed at any time – information is always up-to-date, work in progress screens
have drill down options into lower level queries and all stock movement histories down to operator & location level can be viewed
Time–to-value period is short - the monthly rental model and avoidance of up-front license purchases together with the efficiencies achieved through the benefits listed above ensures that savings very quickly exceed the investment
