Successful implementation of GESTIN – efficient and cost-saving stocktaking
“Massivmoebel24 GmbH is a leading e-commerce retailer of solid wood furniture in Germany and other European countries. With currently around 80 employees, we operate our company headquarters in Steinfeld, a returns and delivery warehouse in Untersiemau and a dispatch warehouse in Dessau.
With the introduction of the GESTIN inventory sampling software from classix, we were able to optimise our inventory processes considerably. By using the system, we have achieved cost savings of around 60% and significantly reduced our operational expenditure.
One decisive advantage is that we no longer need to bring our operating processes to a complete standstill for stocktaking. We were also able to reduce the number of items to be counted from around 40,000 to just 6,000. This not only led to a considerable reduction in workload, but also to a drastic reduction in personnel requirements: The number of employees required fell from 30 to just 10, while the total time required was reduced from over 30 hours to around 8 hours.
In addition to the outstanding efficiency of the software, we would also like to thank the classix team for their excellent support and great assistance – from the implementation to the comprehensive training of our employees. The professional support from the classix team made the entire process smooth and successful.
GESTIN impresses with its intuitive operability, high precision and enormous time savings. We are extremely satisfied with this solution and can recommend it without reservation.”

“At OASE, we have dedicated ourselves to a passion for water, living spaces and design with the highest technical precision. For the creative staging of water in gardens and aquariums as well as in the professional sector for fountain technology and water technology. From conception to implementation, from function to fascination, from technical to biological, we offer innovative staging, smart products, top quality and pure comfort.
The Oase Group was faced with the challenge of increasing the efficiency of its stocktaking processes. The previous stocktaking time was 15 calendar days and the number of items counted totalled 12,000, which resulted in considerable expenditure of resources.
By implementing the GESTIN inventory system from classix Software GmbH, we were able to achieve remarkable successes: Inventory time was reduced from 15 to just 2 calendar days. This led to a considerable increase in efficiency and a minimisation of operational interruptions. At the same time, the number of counted items was drastically reduced from 12,000 to 1,000. This reduction corresponds to a goods value of 50% of the total warehouse stock, which has considerably reduced the effort and complexity of stocktaking.
Personalised support from classix Support ensured that all employees involved were optimally prepared and that the inventory could be carried out smoothly and successfully.
Thanks to the introduction of GESTIN, we were not only able to significantly increase the efficiency of the inventory processes, but employee satisfaction also improved considerably. The time and cost savings allow us to focus on other strategic initiatives and drive growth. We can recommend the GESTIN inventory software from classix without hesitation.”

“FONDIUM Group GmbH is Europe’s leading supplier of cast iron components for the automotive and commercial vehicle industries. It is represented with its foundry plants at the Singen and Mettmann sites.
With the change from SAP to the new ERP system from infor LN (Automotive Public Cloud) in 2022, we had to compensate for the missing inventory sampling function in order to maintain the efficiency of the annual count.
In the search for a suitable inventory sampling software, we decided, after a selection process, for the software GESTIN classix.cloud.
Thanks to the competent consulting, we were able to successfully implement the inventory sampling in our two locations within a short project phase.”

“We were urgently looking for a solution to drastically reduce our inventory effort.
So far, we have needed 225,650 counting items for our inventory:
Thanks to the competent advice and the uncomplicated implementation of the sampling software GESTIN in our existing ERP system, we successfully completed our inventory in only 0.5 days with 2 people, including the final report for the auditor. In addition, thanks to the software, we were able to carry out our inventory parallel to our daily business and completely avoid warehouse closures.
In the future, we will switch to the inventory software GESTIN of classix Software GmbH in all our locations.”

TUI Engineering uses GESTIN from classix Software GmbH for it’s Main Base Annual Inventory Audits
“TUI Engineering, Supply Chain use the GESTIN software from classix for a variety of reasons. Using the classix cloud-based servers and their inhouse expertise, set up and data transfer from our AMOS System was easily established. Although our TUI facility in Hannover had been using a PC based version of the application for several years, we chose to use the full online functionality for our TUI Group solution, which covers all TUI main base stock locations.
Other determining factors for TUI is the independent algorithmic generation of audit sampling, for our Consumable and Expendables Aircraft Maintenance stock. This has been fully endorsed by our Company Auditors in support of our annual inventory valuation.
The use of the online functionality provides TUI with the ability to produce auditable stock lists for online real-time stock takes, in our warehouse environments. Which has improved our efficiency by reducing stock checks from 100% to sample counts and completing our internal Inventory audits in a fraction of the previous time.”

“With the team from ClassiX Software, we were up and running within a few days to carry out a sample inventory according to recognised mathematical procedures. Advice and support during implementation were excellent. Before, it took us several weeks and a team of about five people to do the inventory to count about 10,000 different stocks. Now, with three people, we were done with the inventory in three days. Inventory has never been so easy and fast!”
Ralf Hensinger

“Since 2014, we have been using the GESTIN inventory sampling system to comply with legal requirements. Since then, the inventory runs quickly and smoothly. Auditors and tax auditors also welcome the inventory support.
In our company, there are about 16,000 inventory-managed items in stock, which are distributed over about 17,000 storage locations. In total, there are about 76,000 storage locations in our company, all of which would have to be checked.
With the GESTIN inventory sampling system, we were able to massively reduce the counting effort. On the inventory date, we now only count about 350 items. Everyone can imagine what a relief that is.
The support from ClassiX is excellent and the software is so easy to use that after three hours of training everyone knows how the application works.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank ClassiX very much and can recommend GESTIN inventory support to everyone without reservation.”

“From about 4 days of effort with the conventional full recording, we only had less than 4 hours left thanks to the use of GESTIN – with the same personnel deployment of 6 people. This results in a saving of 168 man-hours for us – a full 87.5 percent of the original effort. At the same time, the blocking time of the warehouse has been minimised. Today, all those involved in the inventory as well as the management are very satisfied with these results.
We had already dealt with the issue of inventory simplification when we came into contact with ClassiX at the end of 2014. After examining solutions from other providers, we finally decided on GESTIN from ClassiX, as it seemed to us to be the easiest to use and the most flexible in terms of adapting to our systems. As it turned out, our decision was the right one.
We have around 16,000 counting positions distributed over 16 Hänel lifts and a high-bay warehouse. The data exchange between Hänel software (inventory), ABAS ERP (value) and the GESTIN inventory software went smoothly during the inventory.”

“As early as 2002, we had already thought about the inventory sampling. At that time, however, we decided to stick to the full inventory on the cut-off date, with the idea that this was the only way to determine correct stocks. With our 13,000 items, the effort of the full inventory amounted to 100 man-days and the results were often qualitatively insufficient. In 2010, after a new audit and consultation with our auditor, we decided to use the inventory sampling method and the GESTIN software because it was the easiest to use. Thanks to the excellent advice from ClassiX Software GmbH, we were able to use the programme after only half a day’s training. Since then, we have been able to reduce the effort of our inventory by 95% and improve the quality at the same time. We are very satisfied with the new situation.”

“Our inventory comprises around 17,500 items. More than 10 years ago, we implemented the changeover from permanent inventory to inventory sampling. This enabled us to reduce the time needed to carry out our inventory by about 100 man-days. In addition, we were able to identify and eliminate systemic errors in inventory booking. We were also able to minimise pure counting errors, which in the past were favoured by the monotony of the constantly recurring counting processes. Overall, we have improved the quality of our inventory management and reduced our inventory costs at the same time.”

“We have been using inventory sampling in the company since the 1980s. In 2014, we carried out the inventory for the first time with the new GESTIN software from ClassiX. We were able to use the new features easily and efficiently after a short familiarisation period. In addition, the support department of ClassiX offers a great service that has always supported us quickly and straightforwardly in all questions. I would like to thank them very much for this. It was the right decision for us to choose ClassiX.”

After the first inventory sampling, we realised that the quantity differences shown by the software system were almost without exception the result of incorrect counts during the last full inventories. With GESTIN we now not only save time and money, but also improve the quality of our stocks. We can no longer imagine doing a conventional full inventory as we used to.”
