Challenge
- Disconnected operations slowed a growing supply chain: Strauss needed to bring structure and digital visibility to a complex, multi-location network where manual processes and siloed systems made fulfillment slow and scaling difficult.
- Transformation without disruption: Modernizing operations at two main locations meant implementing fast but without jeopardizing existing operations or interrupting customer commitments.
Solution
- Intelligent orchestration through connected systems: Strauss implemented Infios WM (Warehouse Management), Infios WCS (Warehouse Control System), and Infios DOM (Distributed Order Management) to synchronize inventory, automation and order flows across sites.
- Scaled automation: integration of automated conveyor technology, goods-to-person workflows and a robot-assisted returns process, streamlining goods movements for maximum efficiency.
- Enhanced visibility and execution: Strauss balances workloads across both large and small locations, enabling inventory visibility in the millions, and enabling to dispatch over 100,000 parcely per day.
“With absolute precision and flawless coordination, we successfully executed a complex brownfield project—right in the middle of ongoing operations.”
