Quick, Simple and Smart – The Digitalization of Logistics Processes at Cartiera Giacosa
The Customer – Cartiera Giacosa
Cartiera Giacosa is a family-owned company specialized in the production of saturating kraft for the plastic laminate sector, operating in a niche and highly specialized market. The company employs approximately 130 people, about twenty of whom are dedicated to logistics: a lean structure compared to major competitors, but with a strong focus on operational efficiency.
Why Load Manager?
Before the platform was introduced, inbound management was poorly structured: the gate was opened and the operational trend only became clear during the day
“With an annual production of approximately 60,000 tons, limited stock and near just-in-time logic – particularly for impregnated paper – along with an inbound flow of 2,000–3,000 trucks per year, we needed a tool that was:
- quick to implement;
- simple and intuitive for operators;
- economically sustainable;
- capable of generating measurable savings
We needed to digitalize planning: those who plan have the only real tool to optimize and avoid planning failure.”
As explained by Marco Magnano, Chief Operations Officer of Cartiera Giacosa.
Load Manager was adopted by configuring the platform according to the warehouse’s real operational needs. Project timelines were extremely fast: about one month between the initial analyses, system configuration and full operational go-live.
