Abena: Setting up for Future Supply Chain Success

Looking to drive immediate efficiencies across its production and warehouse environments, as part of a global strategic digital transformation programme, Abena is benefitting from a more engaged workforce, increased productivity gains and improved product traceability, following a joint digitisation project with The Config Team to deploy a new mobile barcode scanning software solution. Abena, a leading manufacturer of healthcare and medical products, is successfully rolling out a digital transformation project to align all its business units and subsidiaries globally onto a single IT platform. The Config Team delivered PreBilt, an intuitive mobile scanning solution, to manage core warehousing and production processes across inbound, stock movements, issue to production and outbound activities.

Key elements were removing the need for operators to execute transactions on desktop terminals to make their tasks simpler and drive key efficiencies.

The new mobile scanning software developed by The Config Team and rolled out by Abena, is delivering significant benefits across the organisation including: -A more agile solution that can adapt to business changes -An increase in productivity and efficiency -Improved labour recruitment and retention -A platform to support its global IT strategy
