We often hear that digital transformation is a special business challenge that a company can tackle strategically and prudently. And despite the fact that it does require a certain amount of investment (both from a financial and a time point of view), in the long run it helps the company to grow. To become more competitive, to operate with fewer losses and, compared to competitors, to also adapt more easily and quickly to the ever-increasing demands of customers.
In today's blog, we therefore present 3 concrete examples of companies that turned to our Tom PIT.connected platform for help in implementing digitalization and digital transformation.
At the beginning, we will present a small family business engaged in farming and selling eggs. At the farm, they found that the sale of eggs in the field takes place in a very time-consuming and inefficient way, since they do not have any system to record the sale - everything is done "by hand". And as you can imagine, manual inventory of several thousand eggs sold per month is extremely demanding. Especially if we strive to make it both accurate and as economical as possible in terms of time. And since they simply couldn't afford to make any more mistakes on the farm, they decided that the only real solution was to digitize the business. In the digitization process, they were introduced with supply orders that can be created (and issued) right in the field, via a mobile device. And what did they gain from this? In addition to the quick and easy capture of sales data, which affects the acceleration of sales processes, Tom PIT.connected also reduces errors in the inventory of sold products and increases the satisfaction of both customers and employees. Yes, this is digitization in all its glory.
In the following example, we will focus on a manufacturing company that faced problems in the supply process. It is supply chain that has recently become very unstable, as the prices of materials and other products change from hour to hour. Employees spend a lot of time on administration tasks, and since they cannot access an unified overview of supplyprocesses, their quality also becomes questionable. For this purpose, the company decided to digitize the supply system with the help of the Tom PIT.connected platform, which is now more transparent, more efficient and easier to track. This means that all stakeholders can access supply data in an easy way, with a single click and from wherever they want. The key advantages of a digitalized supply system are the better use of time, as we get rid of unnecessary calls, e-mails and other time-consuming tasks in the supply chain, and a smaller number of errors, which are the result of outdated manual administration.
Finally, we will have a look on a company with serial production, in which they wanted to raise the micro-planning process to a whole new level. Their goal was to provide the service earlier than the competition, as it is an advantage that is enviable in today's times. And how does the micro-planning process work with Tom PIT.connected? Employees gain insight into the planning display, which is equipped with real-time data. This means that they can monitor the status of orders, the status of resources (human resources, physical resources, energy sources, etc.), possible deviations from the work plan, and much more. In one place, 24/7.
