Overview
SwiftLogistics provides fulfillment services for e-commerce brands across India, operating strategically located warehouses and serving numerous client brands.
Paper-based processes created coordination nightmares across locations. Clients had no visibility into their inventory or orders. Without modern warehouse management technology, they were losing deals to tech-enabled competitors.
Challenge
Manual warehouse operations across multiple locations couldn’t scale or provide client visibility.
1. Warehouse Coordination Chaos
Each warehouse operated independently. Moving inventory between locations required days of phone calls and paperwork.
Specific Pain Points:
- No centralized warehouse visibility
- Inter-warehouse transfers taking days
- Manual coordination for every movement
- No optimal routing logic
- Paper-based everything
- Communication breakdowns constant
2. Client Visibility Gap
Clients called constantly asking about their inventory and order status. Without self-service portals, staff spent all day answering basic questions.
Specific Pain Points:
- Constant client inquiry calls
- No self-service visibility
- Reporting took days to generate
- Clients couldn’t track their orders
- Lost deals due to technology gap
- Client frustration growing
3. Paper-Based Operations
All warehouse operations—receiving, putaway, picking, packing—ran on paper. This created errors, slow processing, and no real-time visibility.
Specific Pain Points:
- Thousands of sheets printed daily
- Hours of manual data entry
- Frequent human errors
- No real-time updates
- Stock counts requiring shutdowns
- Audit trails incomplete
