Assessment programme ensures the right systems 'fit'

It is essential to provide the optimum solution system package to members of the warehousing industry, according to Moshe Zulberg, marketing and training manager of Compu-Clearing. “It’s a simple equation,” he told FTW. “Provide too much, and a client’s need to provide a cost-efficient service is blown. Provide too little, and a client’s solution needs are not fulfilled.” To ensure that a correct match is found, Compu- Clearing – the provider of the whole range of customs system needs to the product supplier industry – has designed an assessment programme for clients. “For warehousemen, we analyse their entire business structure, and assess what their exact needs are,” said Zulberg. And, to meet these needs, Compu-Clearing has two different solutions systems. The first is for small businesses which have very basic needs. “To match this, we provide a system which is extremely userfriendly, simple and easy to operate, but which also has all the solutions that the business requires,” Zulberg said. “For the larger and more complex warehousing operation, we have a new system which provides a full warehousing solution for the entire section of the supply chain that such a business manages.” This comprehensive system package covers every need, he added. From radiofrequency identification (RFID) – the use of a non-contact radio system to transfer data from a tag attached to an object, for the purposes of automatic identification and tracking – to the simple bar-coding on each package, to a complete management control system handling everything from the warehousing to product distribution. “In both cases we are providing what a client needs, and what his business merits,” said Zulberg. “Not too much, or too little.”
