WD Bathrooms - Delivery Processes New and Improved!!

May 2, 2008 - PRLog -- WD Bathrooms is a successful internet based company, which now has showrooms in Sheffield and Newcastle Upon Tyne . WD Bathrooms offer nationwide deliveries working closely with reputable couriers as well our own drivers for cross country delivery.  It is therefore essential that our warehousing and despatch depart utilise state of the art technology to ensure that product turnaround runs smoothly and that stock control is maximised.

This successful delivery service means the dispatch team within the company work extremely hard in order to meet the customer’s required expectations. WD bathrooms are now in-corporating new technology to make the process as accurate as possible, which will have a big impact on all the closely linked departments, ensuring improved efficiency.

Previously the warehouse didn’t use any means of technology to identify stock, which was recognised as an area for improvement. As the company is continuously expanding there is an ever increasing range of bathroom items in the warehouse. Racking is used to store the goods in an organised situation and pallets are constructed to transport the items safely to various locations.

The continuing growth in the range of items stocked involves thousands of unique product codes, most of which are very similar to the next. The initial stage of the on-going improvements is to operate a bar code system. The products will be delivered to the head office as normal then the items will be scanned into the warehouse. The company is eventually going to use the new system to scan items leaving the warehouse, making sure stock levels are accurate at all times.
This will be implemented later in the final stages when the system is operating efficiently.

Regular deliveries by manufacturers to the company will now be unloaded in improved times as the product codes will be specifically recognised. Relying on the recognition of codes using the system eliminates the chances of any human errors. The distribution of the products relies on the accurate allocation of stock to the correct customer, this is the next to  achieving the perfect process.

The integration of the stock and ordering system was decided so that specific items ordered by the customers are automatically allocated, which makes it amazingly accurate whenever an order is placed. Although the mistakes are already at a minimum level, the improvements will make sure stock levels are correct.  The sales department will also benefit as they can check stock levels whilst customers are on the telephone.

Accurate delivery times can be advised and customers can be assured in knowing definite delivery schedules for their purchase. The new system will identify current issues and correct them so that customer service is improving continuously and they offer an efficient fast and reliable delivery process every time.
