Identifying Different Brands and Bin Locations

A British womenswear designer clothing brand required the support of RGIS. The retailer has stores and concessions in the United Kingdom, Ireland, Switzerland, Germany, Sweden, Australia, UAE, and other countries, with 106 stores and 207 concessions in the UK, 18 stores and 128 concessions internationally.

REQUIREMENT

The designer clothing brand needed help to understand which brands were in which of their three warehouses, so required RGIS to provide the following:

  • Count stock across three separate warehouses
  • Reporting of stock levels on three separate brands within the warehouses
  • Required the counts on specific dates with a set time frame of completion
  • Bin locations to be identified within the custom reporting

SOLUTION

The designer clothing brand partnered with RGIS to complete the distribution centre brand by bin location project, and RGIS provided the following:

  • RGIS worked closely with the customer to understand the specific reporting required
  • Scheduled a team of 80 experienced RGIS auditors
  • Set up a bespoke program to capture item, bin location validation file and output file

RESULTS

The designer clothing brand found that by outsourcing the distribution centre brand by bin location project to RGIS, the following results were achieved:

  • All three warehouse counts were completed within the time frame given
  • A full understanding of what stock was in each distribution centre and also where it was located within the specific distribution centre
  • The customer received the custom reporting in the format that had been requested
