8120501Faurecia, accurately supplying products to the motoring industry(05/12/08)

Faurecia is a global supplier to the automotive industry, operating in the design and production of vehicle seats, cockpits, door panels, carpets, acoustic packages, front ends and exhaust systems.

Faurecia established two areas that they needed to address - firstly, to ensure accurate labelling of products so they could be traced throughout the supply chain. Secondly, to guarantee each item was placed in the right shipping
container and in the correct quantity for dispatch.

Intellident and Faurecia worked together to create a unique and fool proof labelling solution, which provided a variety of benefits around product labelling and association. The ultimate aim of the solution was to optimise delivery costs and ensure deliveries were 100% accurate.

Implementing the product labelling solution has meant that Faurecia can now uniquely identify every item from point of production through to dispatch, providing a complete audit trail of each stage in the process. This identification allows them to be sure that they are loading and dispatching the right type and quantity of product. By guaranteeing 100% accurate delivery’s, Faurecia have been able to build and enforce a trusted and supported relationship with their customers.
