A manufacturer improves parts management

The Challenge

This Quebec City area manufacturer managed an inventory of over 12,000 parts references in a 50,000 sq ft warehouse. Unexpected stockouts caused production stoppages, and inventory counts revealed significant discrepancies.

Our Approach

After a thorough diagnostic, GCL implemented Flowtrack Web with a particular focus on stock level management, replenishment alerts, and storage optimization. Integration with their production system was completed in 8 weeks.

The Results

  • 60% reduction in stockouts
  • Inventory accuracy improved from 88% to 98.5%
  • 70% reduction in parts search time
  • Automatic replenishment alerts
  • Elimination of production stoppages due to stockouts
Flowtrack gave us complete visibility over our parts inventory. We know exactly where every component is, at all times.
