(Sponsored News) Uly Dala is a large chain store in Kazakhstan. As the business grows, Uly Dala has opened one of the largest Uly Dala stores in the city of Jezkazgan, selling more than 20,000 items on the opening day. In order to achieve high-performance store operation and management and provide customers with a superior shopping experience, Uly Dala decided to deploy smart data acquisition terminals for intelligent goods management of their warehouses.
Challenges
- The warehouses of shopping malls had a wide variety of goods. The efficiency of manual identification and record was low. It was not possible to effectively monitor the arrangement of goods on shelves, shelving, and inventory putaway and retrieval.
- It was not possible to monitor the stock and consumption of goods in each warehouse in real time, thus scheduling to refill in a timely manner.
- Real-time recording and tracking of goods movement could not be achieved. The entire goods movement from suppliers to end-users could not be effectively monitored. So, the records could not be reviewed later.
Solution
With the barcode identification technology introduced by Chainway C66 Handheld Computer, Uly Dala has achieved intelligent warehouse operation such as identification of goods being moved in and out of warehouse and identification, monitoring and tracking of shelved goods. The equipment has also been used to manage selling prices and audit expiry dates. An efficient, real-time and smart stock management has been attained.
The key activities during the entire process, from suppliers, warehouses through to the delivery to order, and the coordination among warehouses, for every single batch of goods, have been recorded in real time and uploaded to backend management system. The management has been able to monitor the goods movement in real time, audit historical records and perform data analysis.
Outcomes
- The application of C66 barcode technology has enabled the management to obtain the goods information in no time while the goods were being moved in or out of the warehouses and put on shelf by simply scanning the barcodes on the packages. The information was uploaded to the backend simultaneously. This application has saved a lot of working hours and improved efficiency.
- The stock and consumption data in each warehouse has become available in real time in the backend. This has facilitated the management of replenishment, dispatches from the closest warehouses, and optimization of stock allocation.
- Managers have been able to monitor real-time dynamic information of goods via the backend management system, and file digital records. The records could be reviewed in the future and used for data analysis.
