So in a country like Denmark, where various costs are higher, we need to run a more intelligent production. And that is what we wanted from our collaboration with Solar.”Karl-Peter Andersen, CEO of Selektro
Achieving optimum logistics with a TCO approach
Danish electronics company Selektro has accomplished a general performance improvement for the entire business, partly due to a supply chain solution from Solar. Today, the solution consists of a stock management system with approx. 1200 article numbers, Solar Kit deliveries for projects both here in Denmark and at their subcontractor in Poland.
The Solar Kit service, where materials of different sorts are packed in sensible wrapping and specially labelled, means that Selektro employees don’t waste time sorting the products. Everything is delivered so that it suits the project in question. This means that you can start the actual work much faster.
“We believe that the time of the installers is much better spent on assembling more products, than unwrapping materials”, says Karl Peter Andersen.
For instance, if Selektro is to fabricate certain panels or cabinets, which require 100 different components, then all 100 components are delivered as one kit under one article number. Instead of having to purchase them separately, place them on shelves and attach article numbers to them, this service saves them plenty of time and storage space.
Selektro also has a Solar Kanban solution which means that they can accomplish the jobs of the company with much fewer employees. Read more about Kanban under Inventory Management.
Preassembly by Solar
Preassembly means that we will assemble the components for you. So in stead of having for instance, a radiator delivered in parts, you’ll receive it ready for installation.
Imagine an apartment building where you know just how many radiators you need and whether the thermostat should be placed to the right or left. You’ll save a bunch of man hours if the elements are delivered assembled, enabling you to move on quickly to other projects.
Advantages:
- Reduce man hours on site
- Optimise efficiency
- Less disposal
Special labelling
This service means that you can have your deliveries marked and labelled according to your needs and specifications.
Marking and labelling are adjusted based on product type, place of delivery or other specifications. And this goes for materials from our central warehouses as well as special order goods.
Special labelling may also entail a certain quality of the label itself. For example, if you work on an offshore facility, the label needs to be resistant to both salt and water.
Advantages:
- Simplified internal distribution with your own labels
- Delivery contents are easy to deduct
- Efficient goods reception
SmartKit
With SmartKit, you get exactly the materials you need for a specific project - no more, no less. You avoid loss of materials and when the kit is empty, the job is done. With the SmartKit being marked with the special yellow label, you also save time looking for you materials. You decide exactly what destination is written on the label, so it will end up with the right person.
