Colored Images Change Distribution Process Challenge

This successful exhibit services company creates custom trade show exhibits and event environments for companies of all shapes and sizes.

The company not only manufactures the exhibits but also keeps the displays and banners in their warehouse and stores them for their customers.

The company’s challenge was inventory management.

Because all of their banners were rolled up, they could not see the banner image and were having trouble finding the correct item when it was needed.


Solution

After learning about the company’s processes and needs, Coridian was able to identify a unique solution to help the company accomplish their end goal.

Coridian helped this exhibit services company implement a new inventory management software using FileMaker Pro.

The company now collects an image of each banner, uploads the image into the software and assigns the part number and barcode to the image.

 

The information flows through FileMaker Pro to an Epson color printer and prints out a label with the banner image, barcode and part number.

They apply this label to a tag and attach it to all of the banners before they go into storage.
