WASTEFUL SUPPLY CHAIN EXPENSES?
NOT ANYMORE.

The process of capturing an order is the first step in handling actual demand. Any slowdowns or errors caused by paper documents and manual touch points can lead to significant supply chain expenses for building materials manufacturers.

Automation addresses this pressing issue by reducing the three biggest supply chain costs:

  • Errors: Reprocessing an order, issuing credits and shipping goods back can be quite expensive; automation eliminates these unnecessary costs by increasing accuracy.
  • Time: The faster an order is captured and accurately fed into the supply chain, the more time customer service, production planners, and third-party logistics staffers have to coordinate delivery and eliminate extra costs.
  • Supplies/paper: Automation means less physical labor requirements, fewer supplies and paper used, and reduced infrastructure costs.
