Supply Chain

We find what makes deliveries late and stock expensive

A review of warehousing, picking and packing, transport and purchasing, with concrete proposals for what to change. Then we help you make the changes, in your routines and in your business system.

We start on the warehouse floor

We follow how goods are received, stored, picked and shipped, and how the flow is controlled in the business system. Then we look at purchasing, suppliers and transport. You get a picture of where time and capital are lost and a proposal for what to change first. The team has led logistics in international industry themselves, and the proposals start from how a warehouse works day to day.

“Stormyran has carried out a structured review of our processes, including warehouse management, picking and packing routines, transport flows and our use of SAP and related systems. They clearly identified areas for improvement and helped us introduce new ways of working, control parameters and routines that give better control, higher quality and more stable flows day to day.”

Who it is for

Companies with their own warehouse

One or two warehouses where the routines have grown over time. We review the flow and propose what to change.

  • Picking and packing routines
  • Inventory control and stocktaking
  • Layout and use of space

E-commerce and 3PL

Orders from several channels and a logistics partner running the warehouse. We help with requirements, tendering and following up the partner.

  • 3PL tenders
  • Contracts and KPIs
  • Integration through Prime Penguin

Industry and groups

Several warehouses, international flows and SAP or another large business system. We work on the processes and the control parameters in the system.

  • Reviews across several sites
  • Control parameters in SAP
  • Purchasing and suppliers

Common problems in warehousing and logistics

A lot of capital tied up in goods that rarely sell

When the client was to hand warehousing and distribution to a logistics partner, we ran the third-party logistics tender for them.
