Case Study Schiesser: Outsourcing of Procurement Logistics
Overview Schiesser AG, headquartered in Radolfzell, is Germany's leading underwear specialist and on its way to becoming international market leader in the area of "close to skin" textiles. Schiesser outsourced the complete management of its procurement process from the purchase order through to delivery to the factory to the logistics provider Gebruder Weiss. The introduction of an information logistics solution makes it possible to direct the information created (e.g. purchase order, transport status) to the respective recipient in the supply chain in real time. The outsourcing of logistics operations supports the shortening of process times and the reduction of process costs. The establishment of a supply chain cockpit in which all the relevant information comes together permits more efficient transport handling and reduces the workload involved for Schiesser.
