1. Project background
The client is an international trade clothing company, which is mainly engaged in the manufacture and sales of ready-to-wear garments, as well as brand management. The development of e-commerce market competition has become more intense, requiring companies to meet customer needs faster and more accurately. This project defines the goal of building a faster consumer response and a more lean apparel supply chain management goal. Among them, the information construction of the central hub of the warehouse is the top priority. Currently, a warehouse with a warehouse area of about 1,000 square meters is used as an RFID application pilot project to improve the accuracy and rapid response of supply chain management, and bring consumers a wealth of and popular clothing.
2. Customer needs:
The previous warehouse management used manual work and bar code management methods. The data collection method was more complicated, and there were problems such as heavy workload, error-proneness, and discrepancies between the book and the actual quantity. After our analysis, the staff relies more on manual memory in the warehouse operation process, such as picking and leaving the warehouse, downloading the shipping notice in the ERP, and searching for the approximate scope of the goods based on the memory. This process is more Most of it is personal identification and judgment, looking for the goods in the delivery notice, and excluding the goods in the non-delivery notice; at the same time, the warehouse clerk needs to make a mark on the surface of the goods.
Customers mainly need to improve the existing warehouse management system, need a way to improve the existing process, incorporate new technical means, and also need to integrate with the management of the production workshop. In terms of the entire supply chain management, the system needs to be connected with the ERP system to be able to obtain the material information in the ERP and the detailed material information of the inbound and outbound orders.
Three, the solution:
According to the management problems and urgent needs faced by customers, design solutions centered on RFID technology, integrate other software, communication, database technology and hardware resources, and build a modern information management system.
The management area involved in the project is the assembly workshop and the warehouse. We expand the two areas separately from the work process, and conduct a detailed analysis of each link and process in each area, and analyze the customers’ encounters in the production work. To the question.
1. Finished product warehouse management subsystem
Pre-enter the basic data necessary for the operation of the warehousing system in the system, such as location information, manufacturer information, etc. In the aspect of warehousing, automatic storage location guidance warehousing function has been added. In the inventory, focus on checking the handhelds to find the inventory location materials that are inconsistent with the inventory.
2. Complete production data management subsystem
Transform the current one-dimensional bar code assignment method, add the RFID electronic label assignment of the product, under the premise of retaining the original one-dimensional bar code, perform data integration between the two, call the interface provided by the ERP system to receive material information, and real-time material information Upload to the server.
3. Interface and data interaction with other systems
Through the expansion of RFID clothing warehouse management system software, we did a second targeted development, and carried out batch and direct data exchange processing with other self-owned management systems of the enterprise. Supports quick data import and data information exchange.
4. Simple system installation and maintenance
Centralized management and maintenance, free installation and zero maintenance of the client, greatly reduce maintenance costs. As the physical layout and conditions of the goods are always changing, the entire system can meet the ever-changing needs. The system provides a simpler UI design, eliminating IT management personnel training costs and energy.
4. Project value
1. Efficient and accurate data collection
RFID readers and RFID electronic tags are used for automatic data collection in core business links of warehouse management, such as warehousing, inventory, and transfer, to complete automatic identification of product labels, product information, and quantities. At the same time, the equipment status has an online detection function.
2. Mobile promotes efficiency improvement
In the construction of the system, the full use of wireless and mobile technology has promoted the improvement of the operational efficiency of the warehousing business. On the mobile terminal, an application that meets the needs of the customer has been installed, and the realization of mobile can make the customer’s efficiency, accuracy and visualization. Improved to a whole new level.
3. Improve customer satisfaction
To improve the past problems of reduced customer satisfaction and loss of sales due to inaccurate shipments or delays in delivery, systematic statistical analysis can better achieve accurate management of the supply chain, thereby improving customer service levels.
4. Complete statistical analysis of data
Achieve a richer query and statistics function for the clothing data in the warehouse, and clear and orderly manage the unit, name, specification, storage situation, transferred goods, historical inventory, statistics of various types of goods, and effective goods information.
5. Information visualization management
Symmetric data and visual management are the core of the modern information society supply chain. Real-time and accurate data is obtained through RFID. The problem of slower information circulation in the business system and reduced inventory visibility and information availability of the entire warehouse operation has been improved.
Five, summary
The warehouse management system built around RFID technology has changed customers’ traditional warehouse management methods. Automatic data collection is carried out on the data of each operation link of clothing warehouse, such as arrival inspection, warehousing, outbound, allocation, shifting, inventory counting, etc., to ensure the speed and accuracy of data input in each link of warehouse management. Improved the negative impact of market supply chain competition in the new era on enterprise warehouse performance.
RFID and mobile technology can realize the automation and simplification of warehouse management and logistics processes, and combine with the management of the production workshop to carry out a more comprehensive warehouse management construction, forming a seamless connection with the ERP system, and systematically solving key problems. At the same time, the Littlebee RFID clothing warehouse management system solution has reached the customer’s low-cost and fast implementation requirements, ensuring the customer’s return on investment.
