Pharmaceutical Logistic Centre Count
A pharmaceutical company involved in distribution, with a fleet of vehicles providing a widespread and logistically functional distribution over the national territory, highly specialised in the large-scale retail trade required support from RGIS.
REQUIREMENT
The logistic company required a company with pharmaceutical stocktaking experience to count stock within pick zones and stored stock. Specific requirements were:
- Complete stock count within a one week time frame
- Count stock within pick zones
- Count stock within storage areas not within the pick zones
- Ensure all high stock was included and not missed
SOLUTION
The logistic company partnered with RGIS to complete the following:
- Allocated two teams of 10 experienced RGIS auditors
- One team for the day shift, and the other team worked through the night
- Platforms were rented in order to be able to count stock at all levels within the logistic centre
RESULTS
The logistic company found by outsourcing the logistic centre inventory project to RGIS, the following was achieved, to a high standard:
- All stock was counted and verified
- All stock at height, that had been previously missed, was included in the count
- The customer had a complete picture of all stock, in all locations
- The inventory project was completed with no disruption to the customers’ business
- The full stock count was completed within the requested one week time frame
