Automate and Streamline Documentation Workflows with Velocity Forms

Posted November 20, 2023
automate and streamline automation

In the fast-paced world of supply chain management, imagine the transformative impact of automating exception-handling processes. Addressing common challenges like damaged materials, misplaced containers, or defective barcodes is a frequent occurrence for supply chain workers.

When Velocity Forms are added to mobile workflows, it makes the documentation process smooth and easy, so that exceptions can be handled quickly and without stopping workers from being productive.

This not only saves valuable time but also offers insightful metrics on exceptions, facilitating the identification of areas for further process improvement to enhance overall operational efficiency.

How Ivanti Velocity Forms Works

Mitigating Risks and Enhancing Productivity through Prevention

The prevention of damaged items is paramount for warehouse managers and transportation operators, considering the potential ramifications, including costly product returns and disruptions to assigned tasks.

Damage can manifest across various workflows, from picking and put-away to receiving and inspections.

Timely reporting of exceptions is crucial, ensuring swift resolution without causing operational delays. Remarkably, as much as 11% of unit loads arriving at distribution centers may exhibit some level of case damage, underscoring the critical need for proactive measures.

Leveraging Velocity Forms for Automated Reporting Excellence

Velocity Forms emerges as a game-changing tool for optimizing supply chain processes. By replacing traditional paper forms with digital counterparts accessible on workers’ mobile barcode scanners, it offers a streamlined approach to data entry and submission.

The automation engine within the Velocity platform server further accelerates the resolution process by promptly notifying the relevant department to rectify reported issues.

Noteworthy Benefits of Ivanti Velocity Forms

  • Swift exception handling
  • Accelerated incident resolution timelines
  • Seamless integration into the Velocity platform without necessitating changes to the host system
  • Reduced reliance on paper forms or institutional knowledge
  • The automated flow of tasks once issues are reported

Velocity Forms proves instrumental in addressing situations outside standard workflows. Forms presents a versatile documentation solution that conventional WMS/EMS systems may struggle to manage effectively. For even more detail, read Ivanti’s 2 page solution document.

6 Key Performance Indicators Every Small and Medium Business Should Track

Posted April 26, 2021

No matter the operation’s size, every business strives for better profitability and customer retention. To do so, companies often track several key performance indicators (KPIs) to monitor and forecast business growth. While there are many viable KPIs to track, small and growing businesses are often encouraged to monitor the following indicators:

  1. Order accuracy rates address how often orders are shipped with the correct products to the correct customer within the correct allotted time.
  2. Inventory turnover rates can record the fluctuating demands for any particular product while assessing your ability to move goods down the supply chain.
  3. Gross profit margins provide a clear picture of final profits after operational expenses such as labor, shipping, and the like are paid off.
  4. Cash flow forecast assists small businesses in predicting the costs of high demand, so they can make adjustments accordingly before profits are hindered.
  5. Funnel drop-off rates allow you to see how many potential customers abandon purchases to optimize business tactics.
  6. Market share clearly depicts how your business compares to competitors by measuring company sales with total industry purchases.
