Inventory Management for a Fortune 500 Company in Brazil

Background
 
The client is a subsidiary of a Fortune 500 company in Brazil, which is the world’s largest and most broadly-based healthcare company. To further improve the efficiency of cycle-counting and optimize the allocation of warehouse resources, the company decided to introduce barcode and UHF RFID technology for warehouse management.
 
Challenges
 
1. Due to the numerous types of goods, it is heavy-loaded by the traditional method that requires a lot of time and cost and is prone to errors.
2. The collected information cannot be updated to the backend system in real-time. Thus, there is no data basis for managers’ timely understanding of cargo configuration, and they cannot make timely configuration plans accordingly.
3. Workers want to add barcode and UHF functions to the original terminals, to make the most of the existing terminals.
 
Solution
 
Chainway UHF Sled Reader R6 was deployed for highly efficient warehousing management. Workers used R6 to match iOS-based devices for a complete solution, to expand UHF RFID and barcode scanning for intelligent stock-taking. The solution allows long-range reading and reading large number of goods at a time, helping users to significantly boost the efficiency of inventory management.
 
Effects
 
1. By attaching R6 to the existing device, workers can use powerful UHF functions without the need to purchase another PDA, which is easily deployed and saves costs.
2. Through the UHF function of R6, workers can perform a bulk reading of goods in the warehouse at a long distance, which significantly improves working efficiency.
3. The inventory data can be uploaded to the management system in real-time, which provides data support to make proper goods configuration plans and effectively avoids overstock and shortage of goods.
4. It enhances the efficiency of warehouse management, achieves the maximum use of resources, and reduces operational costs.
