Contact VOX ISM to explore how Dynamics 365 can help transform your operations.
What challenges did Orkla Food Ingredients face before Dynamics 365?
Orkla Food Ingredients faced a scattered IT landscape with multiple disparate ERP systems that hindered efficient collaboration and cross-selling. They relied heavily on Excel sheets for sharing product information and struggled with siloed warehouse operations, making it difficult to manage inbound and outbound processes effectively.
How has Dynamics 365 improved warehouse operations?
Dynamics 365 has streamlined warehouse operations by optimizing inbound and outbound processes, resulting in a 44% increase in lines picked per hour, from 38 to 56. The system has improved accuracy and efficiency, allowing warehouse teams to handle over 450 lines and manually pick 7,000-9,000 kg in a single shift, while also making the inbound process three times faster.
What are the future plans for Dynamics 365 at Orkla Food Ingredients?
Orkla Food Ingredients aims to consolidate and harmonize all business units on the Dynamics 365 platform, with plans for five to six go-lives each year. They are also looking to integrate third-party solutions for accounts payable automation and B2B e-commerce, while enhancing customer relationship management through Dynamics 365 Sales, Customer Service, and Customer Insights.
