Apollo Vredestein B.V. is a Dutch manufacturer of pneumatic tyres for cars, agricultural vehicles and bicycles. The company is based in Amsterdam and Enschede and produces around six million tyres a year, which are sold all over the world.

The challenge

Apollo Vredestein's warehouse in Enschede was sorely missing accurate, real-time data. The tyre manufacturer's stock and activities were still being tracked in Excel sheets. It was time for a digital, mobile solution built for the future. To keep pace with developments in the market and the industry, Apollo was looking for a Warehouse Management System.

The solution

The goal is to optimise existing processes and carry out a complete digital transformation. To provide insight into product locations, we built a mobile Android application. Real-time location tracking using a barcode scanner. Warehouse staff scan a product's barcode and immediately see the information they need. Operators can use the application too. Managing users, schedules and stock is now quick and easy.

The result

With this mobile Android application, the entire production process is digitised from start to finish. There is better visibility of stock positions and more flexibility to meet customer demand more accurately and more quickly.

“Working with Doop, we made great strides; they knew how to challenge us in the right way. We are proud of the result. A beautiful design and very user-friendly. With this Warehouse Management System we can keep costs down, take quality to a higher level and are ready for the future.”
