Impact Metrics

Overview of the Project

Impiger implemented an inventory optimization solution for the global parts and logistics division of an automotive manufacturer. The system streamlines stock entry, storage, and outbound processes across multiple warehouse locations. Barcode integration, automated picklists, and Kanban workflows improve efficiency, reduce manual errors, and ensure accurate tracking for OEMs and internal WMS users.

Challenges

  1. Manual stock entries and task assignments caused frequent errors.
  2. Inefficient allocation of warehouse space slowed operations.
  3. Outbound stock processes lacked automation and coordination between OEMs and warehouses.
  4. Multiple warehouse locations required optimized distribution and tracking.

Approach

  1. Integrated barcode scanning for accurate stock entries and ledger updates.
  2. Automated picklist and Kanban generation for outbound shipments based on demand.
  3. Optimized warehouse space allocation considering incoming stock type and overflow management.
  4. Enabled multi-location stock management with automated coordination between OEMs and warehouse teams.

Key Components / Integrations

Barcode Integration – Ensures accurate stock entries and real-time ledger updates.

Space Allocation Optimization – Efficiently assigns warehouse space, including overflow areas.

Automated Picklists & Kanban – Generates outbound workflows based on customer requirements.

Multi-Warehouse Support – Manages stock across various locations seamlessly.

Stock Distribution Optimization – Allocates inventory based on proximity, demand, and available space.

System Integration – Stock entries, picklists, and shipping instructions automatically shared between OEMs and warehouse teams.

Analytics & Reporting – Tracks space utilization, task completion, and inventory accuracy.

Accelerators / IP Used

Reusable workflows for barcode-based stock entry, automated picklist generation, and space allocation were applied. These accelerators reduced deployment time, minimized manual errors, and ensured consistent inventory management across warehouses.
