Hansen Protection AS upgrades to InStock WMS: streamlining inventory management
Hansen Protection AS, a leading manufacturer of personal protective equipment and maritime textile products, has recently upgraded its warehouse management system to InStock WMS. This upgrade marks a significant step in the company's continuous efforts to improve its logistics and warehouse processes.
Background and Needs
For many years, Hansen Protection AS has been known for its high quality products and services. With increasing demand and complexity in inventory, it became clear that the company needed a more advanced and efficient inventory management system. Previous challenges included inefficient inventory management, high operating costs and difficulties in maintaining inventory accuracy.
The choice of InStock WMS
After a thorough evaluation of several WMS vendors, Hansen Protection AS chose to upgrade to InStock WMS. This system is known for its ease of use, scalability and ability to integrate seamlessly with existing business systems.
InStock WMS offers a number of features that were crucial for Hansen Protection AS:
Automation of warehouse processes: InStock WMS automates many manual tasks, such as receiving, picking, packing and shipping, reducing the need for manual labor and increasing efficiency.
Real-time inventory monitoring: The system provides real-time insight into inventory levels and movement, so the company always has up-to-date information on available products, improving inventory management and customer satisfaction.
Improved Accuracy: InStock WMS reduces margins of error by using QR/barcodes to ensure accurate tracking of goods throughout the entire warehouse process, from receipt to shipment.
Integration with ERP systems: The system seamlessly integrates with existing ERP and other business systems, allowing inventory data to be synchronized with financial and operational data, providing better overview and control.
Cost savings: By automating processes, reducing errors and improving efficiency, InStock WMS leads to significant cost savings, both in terms of reduced labor and better inventory management.
Implementation and Benefits
The implementation of InStock WMS at Hansen Protection AS was carried out in collaboration with iSYS, and involved careful planning and testing to ensure a seamless transition without disruption to operations. Employees received thorough training to ensure they could use the new system effectively.
