Challenges Faced
HCCB faced several hurdles in managing its extensive distribution network:
- While HCCB had visibility into primary sales, it lacked insight into secondary sales, promotions, and distributor inventory levels.
- Distributors relied on paperwork for invoicing and inventory tracking, resulting in inefficiencies and limited data accuracy.
- Legacy systems couldn’t provide real-time tracking or support automated workflows, delaying decision-making.
- New technology needed to integrate seamlessly without disrupting operations for 5,000 existing distributors using the main DMS.
Previously, HCCB had no visibility into what their distributors were selling in the market. Everything was done on paper, making it difficult for the company to track inventory, promotions, or even secondary sales.
The Vxceed Solution
To address these challenges, Vxceed implemented DMS Lite, a solution tailored to HCCB’s needs:
- Provided real-time visibility into distributor-level inventory, sales patterns, and stock replenishment needs.
- Automated primary and secondary invoicing workflows, eliminating manual intervention and ensuring accuracy.
- Developed a mobile application for real-time stock tracking, order management, and inventory updates.
- Enabled self-ordering capabilities, allowing distributors to place purchase orders directly with the main distributor.
- Rolled out the solution in phases with immediate priority-based issue resolution to ensure smooth implementation.
Our DMS Lite application transformed how HCCB tracks distributor operations. Now, distributors can access real-time stock data, manage orders seamlessly, and even track promotions directly.
