Case Study: Fahrner Logistics
Fahrner Logistik provides insight into its success: ‘We tried out various software solutions, but none were as intuitive to use as WEMALO.’
Presentation of the Fahrner Logistics Group
The Fahrner Logistics Group is an established logistics and transport company with decades of experience in contract logistics, distribution and warehousing. Thanks to continuous growth and increasing customer demands, Fahrner was looking for a scalable solution to efficiently manage complex processes across multiple locations.
Why choose a cloud solution like WEMALO?
- Centralised real-time data: Fahrner required a warehouse management system that could keep track of all stock movements across all locations.
- Rapid implementation: As a modern company, Fahrner wanted to avoid lengthy IT projects and instead benefit from a rapid, cloud-based rollout.
- Flexible scaling: New locations or increasing order volumes should be able to be integrated into the system environment without significant effort.
How did WEMALO solve the challenges?
- Real-time transparency
WEMALO provides a central platform that Fahrner can use to manage all stock levels and goods flows at its three locations. Thanks to the cloud architecture, all relevant information is immediately available, which greatly speeds up inventory and picking processes. - Standardised procedures and process optimisation
Thanks to clearly defined workflows in WEMALO, Fahrner was able to standardise its processes and share best practices across its locations. This enabled the company to establish a consistently high quality standard, regardless of location or customer requirements. - Rapid integration of new customers and projects
With WEMALO, it is possible to set up new customer projects quickly, as the system has a modular structure and can be flexibly adapted. This shortens the time to market and increases competitiveness.
- Seamless integration into existing IT landscape
WEMALO offers numerous interfaces to common ERP, shop and shipping solutions. For Fahrner, this meant smooth data exchange between customer, supplier and internal systems.
How does Fahrner work with WEMALO today?
The Fahrner Logistics Group is currently using the cloud WMS successfully at three locations. Employees across all locations have access to the same master data and processes and benefit from:
- Efficient warehouse processes: Virtually no manual intermediate steps and continuous digital mapping of all movements.
- Improved customer communication: Fahrner can provide customers with real-time information about stock levels, delivery status and returns processes at any time.
- Data-driven optimisation: Analyses in WEMALO provide Fahrner with information on throughput times and utilisation rates, which helps with capacity and personnel planning.
Thanks to WEMALO, Fahrner has succeeded in establishing a centralised and scalable solution that allows additional locations or increasing volumes to be integrated without any problems. This enables the company to continuously expand its logistics portfolio and offer customers a modern, high-performance service.
