Increasing Logistics Operations Efficiency by 80% and Eliminating Inventory Errors with Anchanto
Case StudiesLamboMove, a leading last-mile delivery service provider in Malaysia, is a platform that connects all e-commerce sellers with last-mile delivery solutions providers. For delivery services, LamboMove either helps businesses manage fulfillment using their own LamboMove crew or organizes other logistical support to fulfill all shipment requirements.
Additionally, LamboMove offers same-day deliveries and customized warehouse solutions that are tailored to the specific needs of their customers. They also offer warehouse rental space and fulfillment services, which are designed to optimize supply chain management and maximize operational efficiency for their customers.
LamboMove’s goal is to ensure their customers can track deliveries in real-time, have solutions that can help significantly reduce overhead costs while improving order fulfillment and delivery times.
As their business scaled, the logistics provider realized that their current manual processes for managing multiple warehouses and deliveries were becoming increasingly inefficient and unsustainable. This hampered the profitability and scalability of their customers.
Challenges
As LamboMove wanted to achieve logistics operations efficiency, convenience, and accessibility for all, the following areas required improvement to achieve growth.
1. Inefficient Warehouse Management
As their business scaled and operations increased, manually managing the warehouses and deliveries was no longer an option. LamboMove had to manage multiple warehouses without a system to support it, and communication & collaboration were time-consuming. They required a reliable software solution to support their operations and accommodate future growth.
2. Lack of Processes
Before Anchanto, LamboMove relied on experienced personnel to handle their warehouse and delivery processes. Their team manually managed processes for stock inbound, outbound, etc., leading to increased operations and complicated learning for their teams.
They required a platform that could help them build a foundation and assist growth. This was essential as they worked with multiple customers and required proper guidelines and SOPs for better processes.
3. Hampered productivity
Due to a lack of established processes and inefficient warehouse management, LamboMove’s productivity was restricted. This translated to higher fulfillment costs, which further reduced productivity and posed a risk to their position in the rapidly changing market.
“Anchanto Warehouse Management System is fast, easy to use, and reliable, especially when processing higher order volumes and managing inventory. We love that it allows us to streamline our operations and helps us reduce manual errors while achieving inventory accuracy. The team at Anchanto has been extremely helpful and quick with their support.”
