KITTING – SYSTEM FLEXIBILITY

We have a client that sells automotive accessories including floor mats and dashboard covers via a web store. To assist their customers in selecting the right color and textured product for their vehicle, our client created kits containing small swatch samples of the various colors and fabrics/surfaces that they offer. These swatch kits were assembled into sets, and the sets were placed into stock for shipment to ordering customers; however, whenever our client wanted to make a change to a swatch kit (add or remove colors, or fabrics from a kit), each kit in stock had to be physically handled and modified.

We suggested that each of the swatches should be stored in its own location in our stockroom, and the swatch kits (and their component swatches) should be set up and maintained in our system. When a customer ordered a particular swatch kit, our Stockkeepers would pick and ship all of the swatches that were appropriate for that kit. Whenever our client wants to make a change to a swatch kit (add or remove new colors or fabrics to a kit, or to create new swatch kits), a single entry in our system would effect that change. This flexibility provides our client the ability to mix and match swatches and create new kits in infinite variety and in a timeframe to suit their marketing needs (e.g., when/if the vehicle maker introduces new styles, colors, textures in a new model year, etc).
