IoT solution for inventory control and KAIZEN in manufacturing and supply chain

Empower organizations to realize advanced inventory control on a real-time basis and streamline manufacturing process and supply chain with physical inventory data using retrofit-IoT weight-scale devices. Data can be integrated with SAP S/4HANA using the API.

Overview

Automate inventory counting

Users have previously spent too much time taking inventory and investigating any variance or otherwise just neglecting it. This solution means that they don't need to devote time to those unproductive activities.

Enable real-time inventory control

When it comes to control of inventory that has fluctuated demands, the inventory is sometimes planned and adjusted based on the theoretical inventory and intuition of a person in charge. Users can access real-time physical inventory data to enable data-based inventory control.

Visualize what's happening in the manufacturing process

Users of manufacturing companies sometimes hit the wall when they carry forward with Kaizen, because of limited available data on the value stream. We provide real-time physical inventory data of works-in-progress or parts in a manufacturing process, enabling advanced Kaizen work.
