Initial Situation

Previously, container management was manual and unsupported by a tracking system, resulting in a high search and management effort. In addition, the large number and variety of containers made it difficult to work quickly. This resulted in long search times for the container and waiting times for trucks to be loaded.

The Goal

To meet the increasing customer requirements and maximize process efficiency, the goal was clear: Achieve 100% transparency over all container inventories to enhance overall process performance. For this reason, ELA chose IdentPro’s Warehouse Execution System to optimize existing processes and significantly improve productivity.

Statement

“Before IdentPro, we didn’t know exactly how many containers would actually be moved, where they would be located and when they could actually be transported. The search was a time-consuming task for us. Our specialised staff can now concentrate on the essentials and no longer waste time searching!”
