Each procedure, from style entry to placing orders to tracking shipments, could be streamlined and centralized to provide more complete information and maximize the return on end-user effort.
The increased supply chain efficiency of using the new automated system was immediately apparent upon implementation.
La Senza's head office now uses the Momentis Collection module to enter new styles, assign them to vendors and automatically create Purchase Orders in a single function.
When La Senza is ready to buy, the system automatically creates purchase orders for the head office and for the licensees, guaranteeing that the demand from corporate as well as licensee owned stores will be met.
Additionally, the new task management process has minimized warehousing costs by allowing ticketing and packing to be done at the vendor level. With fewer administrative requirements, shipments now spend less time sitting idle in the warehouse.
The Momentis Fashion System has met La Senza's requirements by streamlining the company's merchandise procurement process and lowering the associated costs.
Having consolidated style and order data has enabled their management team to make more informed strategic business decisions and conduct more effective negotiations with suppliers.
Using company-wide reports and queries, La Senza management now has the visibility into the supply chain that was missing in their manual systems.
