Digital Picklists

Speed and Efficiency

eStar client, Briscoes, are constantly exploring ways to streamline fulfilment operations and came to eStar wanting a solution to improve picking productivity.

The primary objectives were to increase the speed and accuracy of picking while reducing labour cost and picking errors. The solution was to make the process fully digital, using handheld devices, and moving away from manual paper-based processes.

eStar’s Digital Picklist is an extension of the Order Management and Fulfilment module that is easily configured and compatible with a range of handheld devices.

Key features

• Product information and large product images for item identification
• Ability to filter and sort the picklist
• Instant validation that the correct item has been picked
• Visual and audible cues for successful and failed scans at time of pick
• Ability to work alongside paper-based picking
• Reduced paper use/printing

Outcomes

• New and part time staff can pick up a device and begin picking, using the product image and scanning the item to validate it is correct. Little product knowledge is required.
• Interface is easy to use and quickly learned.
• Pickers can create multiple picklists while on the shop floor, reducing trips to a computer to create a new list.
