What began as a hardware refresh quickly became an opportunity for more. Warehouse teams were working with complex ITS screens, paper sheets and manually updating SAP at the end of each day. Confusion, mistakes and heavy admin made it hard to keep operations on track.
We introduced PreBilt across four UK sites, giving grateful teams easy-to-use tools they'd been asking for. The impact was immediate. Stocktake times were cut by 50%, because tasks were finished faster. The 12-hour delay from SAP updates vanished. More than 30,000 administration transactions weren't needed, because PreBilt automatically updates SAP in real-time.
Following this success, Univar have rolled PreBilt out across its European operation.
“The efficiency of the warehouse operation now is fantastic, we were never sure before if outstanding transactions had not been actioned, or if they had been physically completed but just not updated in SAP yet. Now we know exactly where all stock is throughout the warehouse at any time.”
“Our office team spent most of their time inputting information into SAP and dealing with stock enquiries from the team and all of that was eliminated overnight. We are now able to get so much more value from this team” Suzanne Williams, Regional Operations Manager, Univar Solutions.
