Case Study
SimpleStock — RFID-Enabled Smart Warehouse Management
Overview
PT Colorindo Chemtra transformed its manual warehouse operations with SimpleStock, Ravelware’s Smart Warehouse Management System. By integrating RFID-based inventory tracking, location management, and systematic warehouse validation, the solution improves stock visibility, traceability, and control throughout inbound, storage, and outbound processes. See how SimpleStock digitalizes warehouse operations through RFID tracking, bin-level location visibility, FEFO validation, and automated process control for more accurate and efficient inventory management.
Challenges & Key Issues
Warehouse operations previously relied on manual stock cards, making inventory updates, stocktaking, and item searching time-consuming. FEFO implementation was difficult to maintain, while stock movement between locations and inventory availability per bin were not systematically recorded. Limited warehouse validation also increased the risk of incorrect item handling, while repacking activities were not fully traceable within the system.
Identified Operational Pain Points:
- pencatatan masih manual menggunakan kartu stock
- metode FEFO masih belum berjalan baik karena operator mengambil yang terdekat oleh mereka
- stock opname memakan waktu lama
- menyulitkan tracking perpindahan barang antar lokasi
- stok per lokasi per bin belum terdata
- tidak ada sistem validator di gudang
- sulit untuk mencari barang untuk outbound
- repacking tidak terdata detail secara sistem
Implemented Solution
Ravelware implemented SimpleStock, an RFID-based Smart Warehouse Management System, to manage inventory from receiving through outbound. The system records actual inventory locations using QR-coded bins, tracks stock movements, enables mass scanning for stocktaking, and recommends item picking according to FEFO. PO and DO validation provide additional control during inbound and outbound processes, while repacking activities are recorded systematically to maintain inventory traceability throughout warehouse operations.
System Capabilities & Modules:
- manajemen end to end proses warehouse dari masuk hingga keluar dari warehouse
- pencatatan lokasi aktual barang melalui QR code per lokasi bin
- validasi FEFO untuk memastikan barang yang keluar mematuhi aturan FEFO
- sistem mengakomodir stock opname dengan scan masal per lokasi
- validasi per PO untuk memastikan barang sesuai pembelian
- validasi per DO untuk memastikan barang sesuai permintaan customer
- sistem memberikan saran pengambilan barang mengikuti FEFO
- Pendataan repacking sehingga terdata secara sistem
- sistem tracking perpindahan barang
Operational Impact
With SimpleStock, PT Colorindo Chemtra gains better visibility of inventory across warehouse locations, faster stocktaking and item searching, and more consistent FEFO implementation. System-based validation and movement tracking also strengthen warehouse accuracy, traceability, and operational control.
