NEEDS

In 2007, Irritec felt the need to reorganize logistics flows to improve inventory management.

Having many warehouses in different areas, inventory management had become complex, so it was decided to adopt a system capable of inventorying and mapping both raw materials and finished goods to facilitate the search for goods in storage.

SOLUTIONS

The solution also had to meet batch and product traceability requirements in order to provide more efficient and timely service to its customers and avoid errors and delays in deliveries.

After a thorough software selection, in which several solutions were analyzed and compared, Irritec chose Replica Sistemi's StockSystem WMS for radio frequency warehouse management.

The main goals of the project were:

  • interface with the Microsoft Dynamics Nav information system
  • traceability of raw materials and finished products at every stage of the production and distribution chain
  • management of the various types of packaging.
  • management of the OpenBox warehouse that gives precedence to orders with quantities less than the package.
  • activation of a pick processing procedure on different warehouses with unification of goods before shipment
  • introduction of shipping UDCs with the corresponding packing list
  • management of subcontractor warehouses
  • inventory control in European and American production units
