Rf solution to replace paper

A high volume transhipment facility operated by DFDS Logistics at its Larkhall facility near Glasgow has begun implementation of the Empirica WMS from Chess Logistics Technology. The site, together with satellite operations in Aberdeen and Boulogne, specialises in handling chilled fish and seafood products locally farmed in Scotland.

The nature of the Larkhall transhipment operation, involving fresh, short shelf life product makes it intensive and time critical. With the new system, the aim is to remove paper from the process, increase efficiency and give customers visibility of their product in the supply chain.

The system will be based on a wireless RF solution which will replace the paper system with intuitive graphical processes based on handheld mobile computers.
