Overview
Ronak International Marble & Natural Stone LLC is a leading supplier of granite and natural stone products in the UAE, dealing with a wide variety of slabs differentiated by size, finish, and lot. With growing operations across procurement, warehousing, and sales, the company required a robust system to manage slab-level inventory, ensure lot consistency, and streamline financial and HR processes. The absence of an integrated system led to inefficiencies in stock tracking, billing accuracy, and operational coordination.
Challenges
Operations lacked control over slab-level inventory, making it difficult to track materials by size, finish and lot, leading to incorrect stock commitments and delivery issues. During yard selection, there was no system to map selected slabs to sales orders, causing duplicate allocation and confusion at dispatch.
Maintaining lot consistency was a major challenge, with different shades and patterns getting mixed, impacting customer expectations. On the procurement side, there was no visibility on import shipments and landed costs, resulting in pricing inaccuracies.
Warehouse processes were manual, with inconsistent square feet measurements, leading to billing mismatches. Additionally, there was no structured approach for average costing, making it difficult to derive accurate product valuation.
From an HR perspective, salary rule configurations were not standardized, leading to inconsistencies in payroll calculations and compliance concerns.
Solution
Implemented a centralized ERP system with detailed slab-level inventory tracking, capturing size, finish, lot and location for accurate stock visibility.
