Description
Task description
Boysen is specialised in exhaust systems. Shipments are made to several automotive manufacturers from the headquarters in Altensteig.
DR. THOMAS + PARTNER had to represent warehouse structures from production to finished goods with its software. Furthermore the on-time delivery to customers in and outside Germany had to be secured. The application is used at several sites.
DR. THOMAS + PARTNER integrated the warehouse into the production as an essential part of logistics. Since then, the warehouse management system handles all processes starting from the storing of semi-finished goods, up to the supply of finished goods. Precise process control and just-in-sequence provision are key for the direct supply of the production line.
Synergies were released by the integration of basic features from Altensteig site into the site at Simmersfeld.
Adjustments made to the basic system:
- New conveyor layout and altered transport handling
- Automated high bay store
- Extended outbound processes
