Case study: Scale

Insights

Overview and goals

SUPPLY CHAIN FIRST

The client, a big manufacturing multinational company, wanted a tool to help the entire supply chain process. In particular, the client needed a solution allowing to understand the real weight of material in entrance, to be able to discuss with the supplier any shortcomings, to track the correct production process of the material - spotting eventual wastes and losses - and to be more confident during the delivery of the product.

Overview and goals

What we did

SCALE, THE SUPPLY CHAIN ENHANCER

To meet the client's requirements, Mind The Value developed Scale, a solution to weigh and track all materials starting from the entrance to the exit from the plant.

Tracking

Scale interface with SAP to build a workable process to measure the weight of all materials in and out the plant (Step: Truck-in, Truck-out, RM GR, leftover, FG GR, scrap App front-end / SAP back-end (database).


Offline approach

Offline approach to retrieve data from the scale when SAP is down/under maintenance or in case of no network signal.


Visibility

Full visibility and traceability of material weight.


duty segregation

Clear duty segregation among vendors, transportation companies, warehouse and shop floor.

Real time resolution

Non-Conformity notification and resolution.

VISIBILITY, TRACEABILITY AND LEAN IMPLEMENTATION

Scale provides full visibility and traceability of the weights for all material movements and in case of non-conformity, it notifies to the relevant parties. Mind the Value implemented and followed all the in-app weighing processes from the beginning to the end. Moreover, our agile project management approach guaranteed errors minimization during the installation, avoiding unnecessary rework later in the project.
