Modern Multi-Purpose Warehouse of NOHEL GARDEN Managed By WMS System with 80 Users
25.3.2008, Uh. Hradiste, Czech Republic
The investment in the SmartStock.WMS Warehouse Management System, which controls all the warehouse operations in the state-of-the-art multi-purpose warehouse of Nohel Garden, has paid off. The number of the WMS users will soon exceed 80 concurrent working users.
NOHEL GARDEN, the largest supplier and distributor of garden supplies in the Czech Republic and Slovakia, continues to expand its warehousing capacity. For that purpose, the company has built a modern multi-purpose warehouse with an area of 9,000 m2 near the town of Dobris, Czech Republic.
Since the Nohel Garden`s business is demanding in terms of the warehousing logic and perfect knowledge of the product range as well as the warehouse itself, it was obvious from the beginning that warehousing in the new facility would not be possible without the deployment of a warehouse management system. The process of customer orders fulfilment is characterised by a large scale of individual orders involving extreme numbers of items as well as by a high degree of similarity of the individual items. For the purposes of perfect warehouse operation, the company decided to implement the Warehouse Management System SmartStock.WMS to control the warehouse operations in real time.
Nohel Garden expects the system to significantly improve the accuracy of work of the warehouse operators, minimise mistakes in picking the goods and comply with the commercial rules necessary for an accurate and correct order fulfilment and for 100% customer satisfaction.
The project has been put in full operation and currently it is being optimised and fine-tuned. In consequence of the increased storage capacity, the system has been significantly extended from the original 50 users up to 80 concurrent working users. That is what makes the Nohel Garden project unique among projects of this kind carried out in the country.
