Session ID: P-050134

Printpack, a leading flexible and rigid packaging manufacturer based in Atlanta, identified a critical need to enhance its core manufacturing and distribution processes following years of JDE E1 implementation across all facilities. A key area for improvement was the shipping process, which was manual, time-intensive, and prone to errors, particularly due to the company’s complex license plate number (LPN) environment.

To address these operational challenges, Printpack established three primary objectives:

Objective 1: Develop a flexible shipping solution allowing warehouse personnel to dynamically manage LPNs on loads, thereby eliminating the need for reverse shipping.
Objective 2: Implement a system for on-demand generation of all shipping documents to streamline operations and improve efficiency.
Objective 3: Introduce automation to boost user productivity, minimize human errors, and mitigate operational risks.
By focusing on these objectives, Printpack aimed to significantly improve its shipping processes, leading to increased operational efficiencies and reduced costs across the organization.
