Background
The company is a supplier of a wide range of high quality products for convenience stores in the United States, and provide the best service and category management possible at every step of the process from source to shelf. Since the original warehouse management method can no longer meet the needs today. The company decided to deploy an information-based warehouse system based on the handheld computer that improves warehouse visibility and the inventory turnover rate.
Challenges
1. The manual identification and recording method comes with low working efficiency and a high error rate.
2. Traditional cycle-counting often involves a high manual workload in the links of inventory.
3. It is impossible to quickly know and find the location of the goods in the warehouse, which affects the overall distribution efficiency and brings a low customer satisfaction rate.
4. Managers cannot obtain accurate information of goods during the input and output of the warehouse in real-time. It affects the goods purchase plans, which lead to out-of-stock or overstock of goods.
5. With high warehouse management costs, it delivers low logistics operation efficiency and a long warehouse inventory turnover period. It limits the development and the market competitiveness of the enterprise.
Solution
Chainway equipped this company with an intelligent warehouse solution based on the application of the C72 RFID reader. A unique identification tag is attached to each item of the warehouse. And warehouse workers can scan the electronic tags of goods with C72 during various processes like input and output of the warehouse, cycle-counting, and sorting, to accurately and quickly identify and record the goods information. Meanwhile, the collected data can be updated to the database in real-time, which significantly improves the efficiency of warehouse operations. It brings great convenience to managers for checking inventory information in real-time and performing further analysis and management.
Effects
1. With the deployment of C72 enables bulk reading of goods, inventory tasks that were earlier completed in a long time now take only a few minutes. It significantly improves the efficiency and accuracy of work.
2. It realizes intelligent receiving and delivery, instead of manual operation, promoting the high-speed operation of product distribution.
3. It can effectively track and record the entire circulation status of the goods and the related staff in charge. If problems occur, they can be found in time to the handler as soon as possible to minimize the losses.
4. The stock level of goods is reasonably reduced and the retention time is shortened, which greatly optimizes the allocation of storage resources and improves the utilization rate of storage space.
5. It improves the circulation speed of specific goods, enhances customer satisfaction, and boosts the overall service quality.
