Hammonds warehouse browser application

Client: Hammonds

The brief

To provide a warehouse browser tool to help catalogue and locate over 6000 component products over a number of warehouse locations due to continuous instances of misplacement and stock loss.

The solution

A simple to use, innovative browser tool, now used by all warehouse staff to help locate all component items.

Leigh Patrick, Purchasing and Stores Manager comments:
"3chillies had to consider the personnel using the system which consisted of non computer literate users and did an excellent job of simplifying the interface, allowing easy search criteria and even providing a ‘help’ button for advice."

The result

Historically the stock system had relied on a couple of individual’s knowledge and luck in a number of cases!  Now all components are easily traceable and stock loss and timely searching is a thing of the past.

Leigh Patrick, Purchasing and Stores Manager added: "Our ISO auditors loved it and commented specifically in their report the vast improvement in the warehousing procedure.  Many thanks to 3chillies!"
