Grow your Sales & Revenue
Give your business a Competitive edge with Sales Operations and Business Process Automation
A Warehouse Management System (WMS) is a sophisticated construct requiring ongoing care. Therefore, regular optimization cycles are essential for an effective WMS to ensure seamless business operations through internal traceability.
By internal traceability, we’re referring to your warehouse. But how can you determine if your WMS is delivering the needed outcomes? Is it providing total inventory control? WMS software enables businesses to exercise control over their inventory, making it more straightforward:
QR codes are the newest instruments for managing Warehouse Management Systems. They enhance inventory visibility through QR codes affixed to each rack and every product, keeping inventory well-ordered.
Our client, a leading electronics company in India, specializes in manufacturing consumer electronic durables. Despite substantial investment, our client needed help to reach targeted revenue. Our analysis discovered an overreliance on manual data.
The consequence? A lack of real-time data concerning inventory is a critical flaw for any Warehouse Management System. Upon research, Basiq360, a trusted name for QR code-based products, uncovered the following issues:
Our client had little control over inventory due to the lack of necessary technology and solutions. There were no dependable digital methods for tracking and tracing goods movement within the warehouse, with the system completely reliant on register records.
The outcome? Difficulty in swiftly tracing goods, be they incoming or outgoing, from the warehouse. A warehouse management system can only yield positive results using advanced technology.
The economic viability of a brand relies on the combined efforts of procurement, manufacturing, and distribution services. However, a single error in logging an entry can lead to significant problems. Our client encountered such issues in return management within their warehouse due to manual counting and inventory upkeep.
These errors stem from inaccurate inventory, lack of digitized solutions, poor picking/dropping management, and no automatic inventory update.
Electronic goods require meticulous care and handling. Moreover, they need digital record maintenance due to large inventory lots. Our client faced the same problem. Large orders led to a failure in implementing the First-In-First-Out (FIFO) rule. Therefore, effective warehouse space management for every inventory inflow or outflow is crucial.
However, our client could not handle this issue, resulting from reliance on manual labor to manage the racks within its warehouse. As we know, manual work is error-prone, a problem our client faces too!
Our client relied entirely on manual methods to manage their inventory and stock in the warehouse.
The consequence? Difficulty in stock maintenance during order processing, updating returns, exporting, and shipping. Every single order from the warehouse becomes challenging to manage. Furthermore, the Warehouse Management System is ineffective due to the absence of real-time data!
It’s crucial to align demand with your warehouse’s inventory, a task our client failed.
A Warehouse Management System serves as a connecting point to various elements across your supply chain. Therefore, a failed WMS can cause cracks in your supply chain, as our client did. Their ability to coordinate inbound and outbound operations was hampered due to a lack of visibility.
Order processing is hampered because of the lack of readily available and trustworthy data. As a result, our client missed several orders and suffered financial losses due to extended pick-up and shipping times. Also, the warehouse’s lack of inventory control led to incorrect orders.
This fundamental issue has been the root cause of the other problems faced by our client—the absence of technology results in inaccuracies.
Why? Warehouse Management is not a solitary endeavor. It can only yield positive outcomes if it utilizes IoT-based tools.
An over-dependence on manual labor leads to numerous issues. The cost of their numbers and services is significantly higher compared to AI. Furthermore, manual tasks and data computations are prone to errors, as was the case with our client. Instead of utilizing AI and IoT-based tools, it relied on manual labor for all tasks.
After identifying the deficiencies in our client’s Warehouse Management System, we proposed a QR code-based product. With Basiq360’s Inventory & Dispatch System – Enhance Internal Traceability of Your Warehouse
Basiq360 is built on QR code technology. It’s designed to provide you with complete inventory control. Yes, that’s our promise. And here’s how we assisted a client in your industry.
QR codes, our solution to the traceability issue, was a game-changer for our client. Whether indoor positioning, rack management, indoor shifting, or outdoor movement, everything can be traced via a quick scan.
QR codes have allowed our client to exert maximum control over its inventory. Every single unit, both incoming and outgoing, is under scrutiny. That’s possible due to QR codes labeled on each product, leading to internal inventory tracking.
Our client can now control the entire supply chain. Every incoming or outgoing movement is automatically updated in the digital inventory records. Any stock discrepancies are immediately flagged. In addition, exact returns regarding failures, return to stock, and distortion are indicated.
Warehouses contain numerous racks, and each rack has multiple bins. QR codes have enabled our client to efficiently manage goods placement on each rack. Manual records are no longer necessary. Basiq360 allows you to tag each unit with a unique QR code.
Moreover, each rack and bin is labeled with the QR codes of units placed on them, thus interlinking the whole process.

The reduction in manual tasks and the time associated with them has been significant. QR codes facilitate seamless warehouse management. Time spent on order processing, packaging, etc., has decreased due to the interconnectedness established by QR code-based WMS functionality.
During order processing, an alarm is triggered. This alarm serves as a guide for the picker, indicating the goods that were received and needed to be dispatched first, i.e., FIFO management. It’s a key benefit of Basiq360, helping brands prevent product damage due to expiry.
QR codes can store vast data and deliver instant information with a single scan. This data is the driving force behind all aspects of your supply chain and its operations. The Warehouse Management System thrives on this real-time information.
