When patients need medicine, they can’t wait for backorders or substitute options due to supply chain errors. Ordering and receiving healthcare products relies on uncompromised warehouse accuracy and speed.

One global pharmaceutical company that came to Mountain Leverage had been facing significant operational inefficiencies, extended pick times, and data entry errors in their warehouses. 

In order to address these challenges, they turned to Mountain Leverage for assistance. Mountain Leverage implemented a voice-guided picking system, seamlessly integrated with the company’s WMS system, to eliminate the need for manual data entry and the associated errors and extended pick times. 

With the new system, employees used voice commands instead of carrying around instructions on bulky laptops, and hands-free ring scanners were introduced to capture batch and lot codes to protect data integrity.

The combined use of voice and scanning technology led to a drastic reduction in pick time and improved data accuracy, streamlining operations and reducing error rates.
