01
Client Profile & Background
A large-scale manufacturing company in Bekasi, Indonesia, with a network of over 200 resellers across Java and Sumatra. The company produces consumer electronics and spare parts, with annual revenue exceeding IDR 500 billion. Their distribution model includes direct sales to retailers, e-commerce via marketplaces, and a B2B portal for resellers. The warehouse spans 10,000 square meters with 50,000 SKUs, managed by a legacy on-premise system. The company aimed to digitize operations to support omnichannel growth without increasing headcount.
02
Technical Challenge
The legacy system caused 12-hour backup failures during peak season, leading to 3-day inventory reconciliation delays. Stock accuracy was only 85%, resulting in 15% of orders being shipped incorrectly. Multi-channel order routing was manual, causing 4-hour delays in processing reseller orders. The company faced 20% stockout rates for fast-moving items and 30% overstock for slow movers. Integration with marketplaces like Tokopedia and Shopee required manual data entry, increasing error rates. The existing HP servers lacked scalability, and backup using tape drives was unreliable.
03
Implemented Solution
We deployed a cloud-based WMS on hyperconverged infrastructure using VMware and Dell servers. The system integrates with SAP S/4HANA via API and connects to marketplaces using middleware. Barcode scanning with Zebra devices and IoT sensors for real-time location tracking were implemented. Synology NAS with Veeam backup ensures RPO of 1 hour. The WMS includes automated replenishment rules based on 90-day demand forecasting, and a reseller portal for self-service ordering. Cyber security measures include role-based access and encryption.
04
Results & ROI
Stock accuracy improved to 99.5%, reducing order errors by 90%. Stockouts decreased from 20% to 5%, and overstock reduced by 40%. Order processing time dropped from 4 hours to 30 minutes. The company achieved a 30% increase in reseller satisfaction and 15% revenue growth from improved fulfillment. RPO reduced from 24 hours to 1 hour, with backup completion in 2 hours. The system scaled to support 300 resellers without additional staff. ROI was realized within 8 months, with annual savings of IDR 10 billion from reduced inventory carrying costs and error corrections.
