Business Challenges
The client was grappling with significant inefficiencies in the cement sack offloading process at their distribution centers. The primary issues included:

  • Overstaffing: Where only two workers were needed, often six were involved, leading to a waste of human resources and increased labor costs.
  • Low Individual Productivity: Workers were handling only 2 cement sacks per minute, far below the expected 5, resulting in slower offloading times, potential delays, and higher operational costs.
  • Financial Losses: These inefficiencies were contributing to a substantial loss in potential productivity and an increase in annual labor costs, threatening the client’s competitiveness in the rapidly growing construction sector.

Our Solution
To address these challenges, we implemented an AI-powered computer vision system designed for real-time productivity tracking. Our solution involved:

1

High-Resolution Camera Installation

Strategically placed cameras provided comprehensive coverage of all critical offloading areas.

2

AI Algorithms Development

Advanced machine learning models were developed to recognize workers, count cement sacks, and analyze efficiency in real-time.

3

User-Friendly Dashboards

Custom dashboards were created for weekly performance analysis, enabling data-driven decision-making for optimizing workforce allocation.

4

Staff Training

Comprehensive training ensured that all personnel could effectively use the new system and interpret the insights generated by the AI.

Impact

The transformative AI-powered system delivered remarkable results, dramatically enhancing operational efficiency and profitability.

48%

Reduction in Required Workforce

Overall Increase in Distribution Center Productivity

The enhanced efficiency led to a significant boost in productivity by the end of the first quarter.

24%

Increase in Volume-Handled

The company managed to handle a greater volume of cement without additional labor costs, contributing to a 6.8% increase in annual revenue from distribution operations.

Conclusion


The implementation of an AI-powered productivity tracking system not only addressed the inefficiencies in the offloading process but also resulted in substantial productivity gains, cost savings, and revenue growth. This successful initiative has paved the way for further AI-driven optimizations across other areas of the client's operations, setting a new benchmark for efficiency in the industry.
