RFID BOOSTS EFFICIENCY, ENSURING YOUR CUSTOMERS GET THE PRODUCTS THEY WANT, FASTIn today’s connected world, consumers expect goods to be produced, shipped and received across the globe at
ever greater speeds. The companies that meet those expectations reap the benefit in sales boosts and higher customer loyalty. Manual processes alone can’t meet the need of the fast-paced world of retail. That’s where
technology comes in. For the highest level of logistics performance, RFID can automate shipping and receiving,
reduce labor costs, and help prevent errors. Lyngsoe Systems’ standardized and flexible solution – Automated Validation Station (AVS) – meets these objectives in a scalable solution to fit customized needs.

What are the costs of inefficient logistics? Unwanted high labor cost, shipping delays, and potential errors
in the fulfillment process are some of the known inefficiencies. Failure to meet customer expectations for fast and effortless fulfillment of orders will cost you brand and customer loyalty. By adopting AVS you can increase the efficiency of your processes through automation of manual touch point in your
supply chain.
TOO MANY MANUAL SCANS?
Manual scans slow down operations, adds costs
and introduce potential human errors that impact
business efficiency.
• Are you conducting manual scan on items to ensure everything reaches its correct destination?
• Does manual handling result in unwanted human
errors?

WRONG DELIVERIES?
It cost a lot of money to correct a misdelivered
order. In addition, it is a great annoyance for both
the customer and company that the promised
delivery time cannot be kept.
• Experiencing that actual numbers of goods
received does not match the forwarded transport
manifest?• Are you receiving shipments that were supposed
to go to another location?

WHERE TO COUNT AND VALIDATE?
Your logistics environment can include one, or
many AVS modules on the supply chain journey as illustrated above. Even a small operation may benefit from automating it. Our solution can be deployed at
any part of your logistic setup: as a single validation
point or as a coherent process.
CONSIGNMENT HANDOVER ISSUES?
Correct transfer of liability between shipper and carrier
of goods in the ‘transport chain’ is important. When
deviations are found and not properly documented,
the shipper is typically responsible for all cost/loss.
• Do you have a defined, digital and documented ‘handshake’ between shipper and carrier?
• Experiencing shrinkages – can’t identify the source?

CUSTOMER SATISFACTION?
Customers’ expectations and demand for shipping
are on the rise. They demand their parcels be
tracked and that the tracking information’s are well structured and detailed. If companies don’t comply,
they risk customer loyalty and revenue.
• Struggling with unsatisfied customers experiencing that they were short-shipped?
• Is your track and trace information good enough?
