Picking errors slashed
August 1st 2008

Eismann UK, a provider of top quality frozen food, has gone live with Solarsoft Business Systems' nextgeneration ERP software which provides the company with fully integrated backoffice ordering, warehouse control and distribution through one integrated system.

Eismann has already seen, through the implementation of Solarsoft, reductions in picking errors to less than 1% of picked goods. Indeed, by the end of the year, Eismann expects that picking error costs will have been reduced to as little as 0.5%.

Bill Asling, Eismann's IT and sales controlling manager, comments "With a manual picking system, we had no way of tracking where we were losing stock, nor did we have the resources to go through regular stock checks every day. However, through the use of Solarsoft's ERP system, all of our individual items can be traced and tracked, allowing minimal room for picking error.

"As a result of the implementation, we are seeing reductions in picking errors and subsequent losses to only 1% of picked goods – a statistic that we see dropping further still to as little as 0.5% by the end of 2008."
