SRG,
which operates through 80 stores under the Suits You
and Racing Green fascia, aims to cut its order to
delivery cycle times by up to two weeks. SRG is also
optimising warehouse space and reducing associated
costs by moving from warehouse to supplier picking.
Kewill Trade facilitates the exchange of business
critical documents between SRG, its suppliers and
its carriers. The system accommodates all elements
of data movement for purchase orders, delivery instructions,
dispatches and stock availability declarations.
“By exchanging orders via the web, we are achieving
both cost and time savings by asking our key suppliers
to move to store picked deliveries,” says Gareth
Durban, SRG’s IT director. “We are then
able to ‘cross dock’ this stock through
our warehouse and send it immediately to our stores,”
he adds. |
