Logistics controlling

 The logistic key figures usually regularly targeted are worlds apart from the logistics controlling system, the way viaLog understands it.The controlling of output and productivity is fundemental:

 

  • Initially we identify key dimensions for each area of the warehouse, for example: Containers for incoming goods, transportation orders for internal traffic, orderliness for consignments.
  • Secondly input templates will be created, for instance, for quantities, net staffing, quality levels. Then for all quantities the source of data will be stated.
  • Finally the reporting system will be determined for all levels of the business:
    - in terms of hours, days, weeks, months and / or years.
    - in terms of quantities, staffing and productivity
    - in terms or the actual and intended performance levels.

The decisive issue here is the analysis of productivity for all processes, for example: number of containers per employee per hour. The planning and constant monitoring of these key figures is – in viaLog`s view - crucial to optimise logistics.

Additionally the following factors belong to a thorough reporting system:

  • Capacity analysis
  • Periodic ABC analysis
  • Commentary / interpretation


viaLog enables the following tasks through logistics controlling:

  • "Design" (content, cost calculation, reports, input templates, etc.)
  • Conversion into Excel format or database
  • Conversion into SQL / Java including interfaces to the warehouse management system
