Case Study: a Fortune 500 manufacturing company streamlines kitting and distribution with RRD's ConnectOne Storefront

a Fortune 500 manufacturing company cuts store-opening trips from multiple to one with RR Donnelley

A Fortune 500 manufacturing company faced significant inefficiencies in kitting and distributing custom start-up kits for their client’s new storefront openings. Their process was cumbersome, involving shipments from five different locations that often arrived at different times and were poorly labeled, leading to inventory issues and an inability to meet client demands. They sought a strategic partner and turned to RR Donnelley for a solution.

RR Donnelley developed and deployed its ConnectOne Storefront solution, a web-based portal that streamlined the entire process. This allowed for centralized warehousing, kitting, and fulfillment, with all materials shipped in one clearly labeled shipment. The solution provided on-demand and on-time deliveries, resulting in major time savings for field reps, reductions in waste and backorders, and the ability to efficiently scale productions to meet an ambitious store opening schedule.
