“It went flawlessly”, explains Benjamin de Chilly. “Jan uses a good software and he is readily available for help and advice. Based on the dimensions of the parts, our minimum stock and the number of pieces that we order each year, Jan first offered us a proposal for which boxes we should use and how many pieces could be stored in each box. His calculations with eff-fill confirmed that we had chosen the right systems. He then organised the loading of the racks. Each location was determined in advance. Honestly, I think that if we had had to do that manually, we could never have managed it. Or in any case, it would have taken a very long time. There was a slight discrepancy between the initial lists that were provided to Jan, and the final number of pieces in stock, but that was smoothly resolved. We also had two
carousel systems that had to be transferred from fixed to dynamic locations. After reorganisation, there was a double check with eff-fill Controller to see whether all the pieces were in fact in the right place. Filling the racks went without a hitch.”
