Use CaseDigital Kanban
Challenge
Manual warehouse processes in trailer manufacturing
Kögel, founded in 1934 with over 550,000 vehicles produced, couldn't locate trailers on their own grounds. Internal logistics ran on paper and phone - Kanban cards, manual inventory lists, and verbal coordination.
Solution
Digital Kanban system with Mobile2b
Kögel deployed a digital Kanban system with GPS tracking, barcode scanning, and auto-triggered production steps. The system was later expanded to visitor registration and 5S audits.
Results
Significant increase in logistics efficiency
The digital Kanban system significantly improved logistics processes at Kögel. Stockouts are reduced, search times eliminated, and production runs more smoothly.
