Malte Haaning Plastik A/S – Mobile WMS Ensures Full Production Tracking

Mobile WMS Keeps Track of All Necessary Data

The decision of using Dynamics NAV for traceability was based on recommendations from the Danish Institute of Technology, and it is a decision they are happy with today explains Sales and Marketing Director Birgitte Gregersen: “Our products are a complex composition of many simple components in many different colors, so we need help from computers and barcodes in order to keep track of all the necessary data, and today we are confident that we made the right choice”.

Higher Quality – Less Walking for Warehouse Employees

Besides production traceability, Mobile WMS also meant a step up in production quality and consistency. As everything is scanned during production, the end-user can be confident to receive exactly the right product. Of course, the scanning procedures are adding steps to the work processes, but the extra work is more than compensated by the use of Mobile WMS.

When working with the handheld terminals, production workers always have easy access to information in Dynamics NAV. This saves them the long walks back and forth between the stationary PCs and printers in the production facility. Problems and breakdowns with the system are nonexistent, and whatever fears some might have had of a slow and tedious system proved to be wrong, Birgitte Gregersen explains: “Posting and reporting of finished production runs works perfect and are executed immediately”.
