Description

stichd is a daughter company of Puma (former Dobotex) and has the European license to design, produce and sell socks and bodywear for PUMA, Tommy Hilfiger, HEAD, LEVI’s and is the trackside retail partner for Formula-1 racing.

Opportunities

Although stichd has moved to a new site a few years ago, further growth urged stichd to consider automation. Groenewout led the design and business case analyses, resulting in PUMA to support investing in goods-to-person technology. Groenewout supported the tender for warehouse automation and was involved in the subsequent engineering phases.

Solution

Thorough data analyses, system concepting & defining required system capacities and calculating man-hour reduction potential by Groenewout were the main ingredients for the business case approved at board level.

Running the tender for G2P-solutions was a joint effort of stichd and Groenewout. While stichd focuses on project management and business processes, Groenewout focused on performance and capacity reviews, technical solution reviews and the financial business case.

Benefits

Ensuring an efficient and first-time-right project execution to get through all stages of this project.

  • Data driven design methodology
  • Know-how of automation solutions / suppliers
  • Experienced project management competences. While Groenewout initially had the lead, stichd gradually took over the lead later in the process

Flexibility in project roles and resource availability.
