Logistics and Inventory Challenges Hindering Growth and Service Efficiency

The client faces significant logistical hurdles with outdated, manual inventory accounting systems that lack paperless transaction management, resulting in slow cargo processing, limited scalability, and difficulties in confirming transaction completion and updating inventory balances. These issues impede the company's ability to meet ambitious growth targets, improve product quality and service, and expand into international markets.

About the Client

A large-scale manufacturing company specializing in complex equipment production, seeking to optimize spare parts logistics and overall warehouse management to support international expansion and enhance operational efficiency.

Targeted Goals for Logistics System Optimization and Business Growth

  • Achieve a threefold increase in storage capacity.
  • Enhance cargo turnover in tons by at least 30%.
  • More than double the speed of customer service response times.
  • Improve overall warehouse performance by over 3.5 times.
  • Reduce warehouse personnel requirements by 50%.

Core Functional Features for Next-Generation Warehouse and Logistics Management

  • Comprehensive management of manual racking areas, lift trucks, and floor vehicles.
  • Control of multiple stationary workstations, loading terminals, and portable radios for paperless commissioning.
  • Automated tracking of cargo flow, inventory transactions, and stock levels.
  • Real-time data management supporting flexible and cost-efficient logistics workflows.
  • Support for radio frequency and loading equipment integration for high flexibility.
  • Distributed client-server architecture for scalable operations.
  • Networking capabilities utilizing TCP/IP and FTP protocols.

Technical Platform and Architecture Preferences
