The customer is king. Distributors know that to keep customers, they have to provide the best customer service, fastest delivery, highest stock availability, lowest cost – and still make a profit. This sector is changing, with value added services being an increasingly important part of the mix. Systems have to change to keep pace with the evolving needs of the business. Flexibility, adaptability and speed of response is vital.
Real time inventory visibility is key. It is not good enough to physically receive stock from your factory or supplier, but not update you ERP system until later in the day when the paperwork reaches the admin office.
iLink enabled Radio Frequency bar-code terminals allow your ERP system to be updated in parallel with the physical activity, also ensuring the accuracy of the data. Benefits of this include immediate stock availability, warehouse capacity visibility, increased order fulfillment.
