Press Release - Thibiant International

KINNELON, N.J. -- (BusinessWire) – Sometimes it takes just one more step to maximize an already smart investment. For Thibiant International, incorporating RF Express™ for QAD Enterprise Applications into its new enterprise system made it possible to streamline 1,500 daily transactions into a seamless flow of real-time data. Eagle provides automated data collection and bar coding exclusively for QAD users.

"The need for bar code scanning became evident when we went live with QAD Enterprise Applications. Without an automated data collection system, we still experienced a gap between the time when transactions occurred and when they were entered into the system. At times, this backlog could stretch into the next morning. The lack of visibility into inventory created costly inefficiencies," said Stella Likhterman, information systems director for Thibiant. Based in Chatsworth, Calif., Thibiant is a privately held company that manufactures and distributes skin care products.

Eagle executive vice president of sales and marketing, Bill Paone, explains, "Thibiant clearly understood that inefficiency is always tied to the bottom line. Even a two percent increase in inventory accuracy can allow a company to experience a return on investment within months."

In addition to improved inventory efficiency, Thibiant enjoyed other advantages with RF Express for QAD Enterprise Applications: Enforced data validation meant that employees could not enter an incorrect lot number - an essential feature when complying with FDA regulations. Bar coding also created employee accountability: Each transaction is recorded immediately, therefore reconciling errors became as simple as speaking with the person who handled the product last.

In addition, Likhterman said, RF Express for QAD Enterprise Applications allowed Thibiant to analyze internal processes -- a factor that smoothed out inefficiencies and permanently unclogged the 1,500 per-day transaction backlog.
