Handling Unit Management

Manage and control packing related logistics processes intelligently

In today's adaptive logistics systems, it is imperative to uniquely identify objects in order to be able to check and steer the logistical processes. Changes like cost pressures, increasing transportation volume and stronger networking of companies cause material flows to be handled both inside and cross-companies. Material movements are increasingly dealt with package related and not material anymore. inconso has been able to organize the logistic flows more efficiently and transparently in many projects by using Handling Unit Management solutions. The Handling Unit Management extends through the complete logistics chain. inconso has used both the classical SAP Handling Unit Management ("inventory led Handling Units") as well as a self-developed concept based on so-called "free Handling Units". By using HUM solutions, material movements within the entire logistic chain can be completed optimally and error-free the inventory transparency is increased information and material flow is carried out synchronously costs can be saved by more efficient use of resources.
