Manual inventory not always solved problems and often generated errors that is inevitable at a commodity matrix from more than 100 thousand positions of SKU. The average duration of inventory in department was not less than one working shift, and on data processing by the operator about 2-4 more hours were required. In scales of network ~ 200 hours of extra work a year, at derivation more than 40 employees[1].

Plans of large-scale development forced the company to look for the effective tool for process optimization, reductions of labor costs and increase in accuracy of accounting of goods.

After market monitoring of mobile applications, in the company made the decision - to make in Skanport company an inquiry for creation of the original software product on the DataMobile platform and purchase of mobile terminals of data collection of Honeywell Dolphin 6500.

Project Progress

Automation affected processes of inventory, check of the prices and goods marking, goods acceptance.

Specialists of Skanport company developed the software, purchased more than 120 Honeywell Dolphin 6500 terminals.

Project Results

In ten hypermarkets of retail network Hoff the management system for merchandising on the basis of data collection terminals of Honeywell and the software from Skanport company is unrolled

After implementation of the complete solution it became easier to execute check of relevance of price labels. The employee of shop working in a trading floor has enough to scan separate two-dimensional barcode, further there is a check of relevance of the price and in case of need replacement of the price label, it can be printed on the next printing device. Thus, marking of products relevant price labels happens in real time, directly in a trading floor.

Use of development of the company integrator and the shipping documentation Honeywell Dolphin allow to carry out quickly inventory in a trading floor that occupies no more than working hour of one employee. Data of results of inventory after system implementation pass automatically.

Shops had an opportunity to print labels and price labels of a different format on tasks of a system and at the choice of the operator, to carry out photofixing of the problem (rejected) goods and to timely send information on them to the accounting system for exposure of claims to suppliers, reduction in cost of defective goods or its write-off.

As a result of implementing solution by 10 times time for carrying out inventory was reduced, information on existence of goods and the relevant prices arrives in real time, the quality of data processing grew (the error makes less than 0.5%).
