Accenture partnered with Singtel and Zuellig Pharma to create the first connected warehouse, leveraging Ericsson's 5G technology. The specific challenge faced by Zuellig Pharma was the need to enhance operational efficiency and improve inventory management within their warehouse operations. Traditional systems were inadequate for real-time data processing and analytics, which hindered their ability to respond swiftly to market demands.

To address these issues, Accenture implemented a tailored solution that integrated 5G connectivity with advanced IoT sensors and data analytics platforms. This solution enabled real-time tracking of inventory and streamlined warehouse operations, allowing for better visibility and control over stock levels. The deployment of 5G technology facilitated faster data transmission, which was crucial for the operational needs of the warehouse.

As a result of this initiative, Zuellig Pharma experienced significant improvements in their operational efficiency. The connected warehouse solution led to a reduction in inventory holding costs by 20% and improved order fulfillment times by 30%. Additionally, the enhanced data analytics capabilities provided actionable insights that allowed Zuellig Pharma to optimize their supply chain processes, ultimately leading to increased customer satisfaction and a stronger competitive position in the market.
