We’ve come a long way from horse-drawn carriages and sled dogs when it comes to delivering products to our front door. Now more than ever, it is essential that your business delivers your products consistently and efficiently. The time that it takes from the production line all the way to the dinner table can make or break a brand. The Pan-O-Gold shipping department works hard to deliver your products on time and to order. Our transport team ensures quality every step of the way until it reaches your door. Here are a few ways to maximize the efficiency of your shipping department.
Stick to Standards
When it comes to processes like the shipment of goods and produce, there is typically a sizable list of standard procedures to ensure customer safety and satisfaction. Not only do these procedures ensure a high quality, positive end result, they also serve as a set of guidelines to follow throughout the shipping process. If workers understand and follow the same set of standardized procedures, then you can streamline the production process. This ultimately avoids errors and allows for more time to check product accuracy and quality.
Communication is Key
From the first ingredient to the final delivery, the Pan-O-Gold shipping department works hard to get your product to your door. Due to the many jobs within the shipping department (including but not limited to: Accounting, Receiving, Finance, Quality-Check, and so on), it is essential that the team work together and communicate efficiently. This keep the process on track for on-time, or even early delivery. It also ensures that no on misses steps that could affect the end result. By developing a language of communication that is widely understood and consistently used throughout the entire department, you have the ability to cut out unnecessary confusion and keep the product en-route.
Get on Track
With the technology we hold at our fingertips these days, we suggest using it to your advantage. By moving your shipping processes online, you have more visibility and control over the day-to-day processes within the department and can therefore continue to advance in overall accuracy and efficiency.
