OFS, a global furniture manufacturer, streamlined operations and doubled productivity by rapidly deploying customized mobile apps for its Oracle EBS receiving cycle count, and work-in-process (WIP) workflows.
Industry: Manufacturing
Product: Mobile Apps
Oracle System: Oracle EBS
Business Need
As a growing company with over 1700 employees and 11 manufacturing sites, OFS set out to revolutionize its warehouse operations and boost productivity by mobilizing its Oracle EBS backend. Their vision included eliminating outdated paper processes and manual data entry on desktops and integrating scanners to seamlessly input and track shipping data in real-time. They initially deployed a packaged ERP mobile solution to meet these goals, however, they quickly found that it didn’t fulfill their needs. Inefficiencies included slow performance, runtime disruptions, and hanging transactions. Worse still, the lack of customization meant employees had to navigate through a series of redundant steps and screens for each transaction. This resulted in OFS employees reverting back to paper processes to avoid using the cumbersome mobile application. This led OFS to begin its search for a more reliable, user-friendly, performant, and fully customizable mobile solution to ensure full value and ROI from its mobile strategy.
“AuraPlayer provided an EBS mobile solution that’s stable, user-friendly, and fully tailored to our business needs. Our AuraPlayer apps have greatly increased our efficiency.”
