Storage analysis

Order

Analysis of the storage and distribution of goods in the production facilities of Faber-Castell AG and Faber Castell Cosmetics as well as optimization of the internal flow of goods.

Situation

Although Faber-Castell AG and Faber Castell Cosmetics operate as separate entities, they share premises in a historic building that has limits to growth, and FCC's continued growth and uncertainty about the performance of the warehousing software in use led to challenges in logistics and warehouse management.

Our approach

We joined the project as objective consultants and carried out a comprehensive analysis of the warehouse and production processes.
Our measures included:

  • On-site visits to the production facilities
  • Interviews with warehouse and production employees
  • Documentation of the optimization potential and questioning of the status quo
  • Evaluation of the suitability of the software used

Results

  • Creation of a detailed process flow diagram that visualizes the comparison between current processes and the recommended processes.
  • Identification of quick wins where significant improvements can be achieved with a small amount of resources.
  • Presentation of business cases for medium and long-term improvements that are aligned with the company's strategic goals.
  • Documentation of all steps taken and the risks and potentials identified.
