Key Benefits:
Cut inventory adjustment and errors by 95%
Improved picking accuracy from 99% to 99.99%
Increased warehouse throughput 300%
The Challenge:
STG serves their customers with an eCommerce site and racing events that are
supported by two warehouses in Shelby, Michigan. Their success and customer
demand were stretching their warehouse staff, process, and technology thin, creat-
ing the following challenges:
Errors in inventory resulted in 5-6 orders per day that could not be fulfilled
immediately and required a back order.
The paper-based picking process caused many errors, resulting in extra
costs.
When STG had peak order days, the warehouse team was stretched to
their limit with overtime, causing delays in some orders’ fulfillment.
The Solution:
STG implemented NetSuite with OzLINK Mobile, which provides wireless bar code
scanning. When receiving, STG identifies which items should be fulfilled on priority
orders versus goods to be put away for processing later that day. Getting visibility to
items on the receiving dock is critical to servicing orders, as some are picked right
from the dock. STG also uses wireless multi-order picking, which increased the
productivity of the staff. The bar code scanning and guided walking paths minimized
any errors and improved inventory accuracy. The benefits achieved include:
Inventory accuracy increased, reducing adjustment from 5-6 per day to
once every 2 weeks
Reduced order pick errors to approximately 1 out of 6,000 orders
Improved NetSuite warehouse operation from handling 150 orders per day
