Task
The customer had set the goal of reducing the costs of storage capacity for field staff, reducing the destruction of unused material and creating greater cost awareness through visible budgeting. This was to be achieved by questioning previous processes such as push deliveries, quarterly deliveries, pallet deliveries and recall campaigns.
Solution
With the developed solution, direkt + online provides storage space, process management, a web store for sales staff and coordination services. Furthermore, we recommended replacing central push deliveries by individual deliveries. The optimization process is completed by cost-oriented budgeting and the possibility for field staff to get direct insight into budgeting.
Project success
Due to the elimination of central push deliveries, field staff no longer needs to use any storage space. The storing of item costs and corresponding budgeting resulted in more demand-oriented requests of the field staff and thus a 30% saving in material production and purchasing, while smaller deliveries facilitate the handling of goods by field staff.
