Case Study: Welch Allyn achieves $1.2 Million in Annual Savings with Liquid UI

Optimizing the Manufacturing Supply Chain with Automation and Barcoding

Welch Allyn, a global manufacturer of medical diagnostic equipment, needed to improve manufacturing and warehouse efficiency by reducing long walks, multiple SAP data entries, and manual keying on the shop floor. With data trapped in a wired-only SAP environment, users struggled with cumbersome processes for inventory movement, backflushing, and other routine tasks, which hurt productivity and increased the risk of errors.

Liquid UI implemented a simplified SAP interface using Liquid UI for iOS, barcode scanning, and streamlined single-screen transactions on devices like iPods and iPod touch. The solution cut complex transactions down to fewer screens and fields, eliminated manual errors, and enabled faster mobile workflows across warehousing and shipping, delivering more than $1.25 million in annual savings and 80,117 hours saved across 2,695,400 transactions.
