Lancashire selects TransLution™ to assist in managing manufacturing processes

Lancashire, a South African school wear and uniform manufacturer, selected TransLution™ Software to help manage manufacturing processes in their Cape Town factory.

The TransLution™ system extends from receiving and labelling raw materials into either the factory warehouse or a bonded warehouse. The Purchase Order receipts are then posted directly to SYSPRO.

From the Fabric warehouse, stock is issued to the cutting area, again with an update to SYSPRO. Stock can also be returned to the Fabric warehouse using a negative issue.

Items are scanned to the sewing room and then to the press room, updating a dashboard at each step to give users visibility of the process

Finally, when manufacturing is completed, TransLution™ is used to post Job Receipts of finished goods to the Finished Goods warehouse, as well as to post kit issues of the raw material consumed.

The final step is to pick sales orders for dispatch. Items are scanned as they are picked into boxes and containers. TransLution™ tracks the entire packing process and provides Lancashire with detailed packing lists.
