CHALLENGE
A national retail company was struggling with managing their documents and turned to CTP Solutions for assistance. After our initial meeting and assessment of the situation, we identified many areas of concern: excessive warehouse space, no standardize release format, no cost containment, many redundant forms, too much manpower spent on managing documents, many obsolete forms, no version control, no cost allocation.
SOLUTION
The retail company signed a multi-year document management outsource agreement to gain control. We eliminated their warehouse and staff for managing documents, developed a secure custom website to order items, implemented version control and graphics standards for all documents, submitted monthly summarized invoices with detailed cost allocation. We supply 47 national retail store locations, 96 different cost centers and manage over 230 items seamlessly.
RESULT
Standardization and consolidation of operational forms has resulted in hard dollars savings of over 45% in the first year alone. With the implementation of the web enabled ordering program, 1 full-time employee has been eliminated. Deliveries have been cut from 3-12 working days to 1-2 days with a 99.2% on time delivery.
