Focus on greater efficiency
Česká zbrojovka, part of the Colt CZ Group, one of the world’s leading firearms manufacturers, has decided to optimise its logistics processes using the Time Slot Control cloud application. The goal was to eliminate bottlenecks in receiving and shipping, minimize downtime and spread out the work of warehouse operators and carriers. Thanks to the deployment of the booking system, the carriers deliver the vehicles at predetermined times, which reduces operating costs – from shift optimization to savings on the use of handling equipment and labor costs. Uncertainty in the supply of materials and the dispatch of finished products also decreases. Centralised records of vehicles entering the company’s premises increase security, visibility for all users involved and eliminate unnecessary email and telephone communication, and allow reporting on the utilisation of key resources and records of returnable packaging circulating between suppliers and the company itself. What other impacts has this change had on Česká zbrojovka’s operations?
