To the last mile - Last Mile Management in the wholesale, healthcare and industrial sector
The implementation of a Last Mile Management helps you to optimize restock processes and facilitates the logistics management and supply chain of your company. Last Mile Management describes the planning and control of the "last mile" of internal logistics, i.e. from central storage locations to assembly workplaces or other processing locations. Last Mile Management is not only used in industry, but has also gained importance in areas such as healthcare and wholesale. Increasing efficiency in this area of logistics management is a challenge for many companies, as several processes are included: warehouse management, supply chain and the route management of the drivers. A suitable technology and logistics management software offers the possibility of automated procurement analysis and its optimization.
The e-shelf-labels solution detects when specific inventory items in the warehouse are about to be used up, triggering an automatic restock process that places a direct reorder with the manufacturer. The principle of Last Mile Management using smart scale systems (SmartBin) and intelligent labels (SmartLabels) managing resources easy with intuitive and digital instructions.
The advantages of this cost-effective solution for logistics management are obvious: supply chain optimization through automated reorders, time savings in logistics, flexibility in the event of changes thanks to adaptable software, full transparency and high reliability. Since Last Mile Management is completely paperless, important resources and the environment are also conserved.
In everyday use, constantly updated insight into individual inventory statuses means that an optimized inventory list and an updated tour plan are always available. Last Mile Management offers a shortened changeover time and real-time data adaptation to smart devices, which makes the process particularly user-friendly. As a result, stock levels can be viewed at any time and there is no risk of an item being out of stock. Last Mile Management, in conjunction with the ARIMS Mobile App can move, remove and add items. This results in a real-time updated location map of the items in the supply chain and improved inventory management.
