For over 30 years, FairfieldNodal has developed and manufactured seismic data-acquisition technology, used in multiple industries including oil and gas. Prior to implementing Oracle Cloud SCM, the business was using a hybrid of systems, whilst most of their inventory management processes were paper-based. In an effort to consolidate their operations and gain efficiency, FairfieldNodal implemented RF-SMART alongside Oracle Cloud SCM.

“We knew we had a gap in our supply chain management solution, and the functionality of RF-SMART fills that gap.” After a quick and smooth implementation, the team began using RF-SMART for inventory management in their stock room. Through transactions such as Receiving and Putaway, 

FairfieldNodal scans receipts, distributes them to the appropriate rack and bin, and prints the relevant label – all whilst seamlessly integrating to Oracle Cloud SCM. The simple and intuitive interface has minimized the number of data capture fields, leading to streamlined transaction times.

Errors associated with paper-processes have been eliminated, and workers are more productive as they no longer need to manually enter data into a PC. But the most noticeable benefits have come from cycle counts and inventory accuracy: FairfieldNodal are now counting up to 50% faster, with data being updated in SCM Cloud in real-time; inventory accuracy has pulled up sharp, reaching close to 100%. “We know where stuff is, when and how - all of the time.”
