Engineering Stores

With numerous engineers on site working shifts covering 24/7 production it was difficult to keep control of parts within the engineering stores and there was no system in place to have visibility of what was in stock and where it was, but even more importantly what was not in stock. This caused significant downtime, loss of production and out of hours requirements that could not be fulfilled.

BIS redesigned the engineering stores layout with designated categorisation (ABC) of stock based on type and use. Each item was located and clearly identified with a bar code allowing efficient replenishment orders to be created. For simplicity a two bin system was implemented for fast moving critical items (A) as a mechanism to physically control stock in a fast paced environment.

Our Data driven analysis has enabled us to further streamline the replenishment levels and deliver increased savings to the customer.
