Inventory Management

Retain complete control of every stock movement through the warehouse with our detailed inventory management system

Receiving, addressing, picking, packaging

 

From the moment your goods enter the warehouse, they are part of a meticulously designed warehouse management system that tracks every movement from arrival to final delivery, ensuring transparency and maximum efficiency.

 

A bespoke warehouse management IT system encompasses batch control, FIFO/FEFO functions, and pick-and-pack procedures. Updated in real time, the system offers general reporting functions, with web-based systems integration and wireless communication.

The warehouse management system has three important systems for checking, picking, and packing the correct inventory to meet orders:

  • A handheld scanning system to identify and verify product units: Integrated with the warehouse management system, it has an alarm function to prevent errors. It is web-based and updates the system in real time.
  • A light-indicating digital allocation system: Particularly suited to bulk picking and point-of-sale replenishment requirements, it features an electronic panel representing an individual point-of-sale, with an accompanying LED readout displaying allocation quantity.
  • A pick-by-voice system: Used for individual point-of-sale picking, warehouse operators wear headsets and are guided to shelf locations. Voice confirmation from the operator confirms correct handling using a combination of location code, product code, and expiry date.

Consolidating and reporting
