Improve your future with actionable data

Making improvements to your warehouse and delivery operation can be a challenge without the right information. Simple handheld devices can track time and actions for each team member, giving you a complete picture of your operation. Analyzing this data allows you to determine where improvements can be made to increase efficiency and profit. Data has been hailed as King, and for good reason. Accurate data is a window into the best, and worst aspects of your warehouse and logistics operation. Mastering this data gives you greater control of problems by pinpointing issues, allowing you to better formulate and enact a resolution. Data also allows you better insight to act on positive data, changing processes or circumstances to effectively replicate a success.

MODERNIZE Upgrade your warehouse to a digital workplace with handheld devices that provide performance and efficiency data. Reduce repetitive labor injuries, maximize your work force and increase accuracy. Capturing relevant and accurate data is the first step in being able to analyze your operation to identify areas that need improvement. Converting your pencil and paper processes to data, starts building your knowledge base and sharpening your overview of each aspect of your total operation.

DIGITALIZE Convert your paper or form based documentation to a modern layout on a digital device to increase productivity and reduce manual tasks. Clipboards and post-it-notes are no way to run an efficient operation in this technology driven age. There are a wide variety of handheld and wearable devices available that seamlessly integrate with your work force to enhance their productivity and ease the physical strain of repetitive manual tasks. Long range scanners built into work gloves become an efficient and unobtrusive tool that gives your workers super-human reach, super-vision and super-speed.

VISUALIZE Consolidate your various software dashboards onto one screen for ease of use and quicker response actions. If you do use a CMS software package to manage your warehouse operation, is it optimized to be an advantage, or does it sometimes seem to just slow you down? If you have more than one application that you must interact with over the course of your day, consolidating your various relevant application screens into a “dashboard” can simplify your process and decrease computer time. Grouping associated screens form various applications can require custom programming to achieve, but if you manage a complicated array of various software packages, it can be a lifesaver when things get hectic.

CAPITALIZE Let’s face it, there is no magical silver bullet of solutions that make your profit margins better, your turn around faster and your operating costs cheaper.  But most times the biggest improvements are made through a series of well-considered small changes. Little adjustments to a large system gives the best control over unexpected contingencies and allows time to correct if you aren’t getting the results you need. Small changes add up for big effect, and using performance data and experienced analysis, you can make the small changes that will reduce labor costs, increase your task efficiency and get more done in less time.
