Orders were taken daily at the home office then sent to the scheduling department to be placed on sheets for picked up twice a week. The route personnel turned in past orders then loaded their vehicles the next route(s) and delivered to customers. The customers often placed their next orders with drivers or, in some cases, required that an inventory be taken for replenishment stock. Signed delivered order receipts were occasionally lost or left in the vehicles, delaying billing and collections. Problems plagued the system due to incorrect items and quantities checked on the order forms, or the wrong items delivered to customers. Notes about the special needs of customers were often illegible and disregarded. Customer dissatisfaction grew while sales fell.
Solution:Using Hunkar Mobile Enterprise System, each line item on the order form is bar coded and all route personnel are outfitted with a hand held portable PC with scanner. New orders are accurately scanned and immediately transmitted to the home office for processing. Deliveries are signed and transmitted for immediate billing significantly improving the company’s cash flow. Customer satisfaction is greatly improved.
