American Ordnance, a subsidiary of Day & Zimmerman, manufactures ammunition for the U.S. military at locations in Tennessee and Iowa. As it ships ammunition to U.S. military installations, it is critical to be able to monitor each shipment in transit.Specialized forms need to accompany each shipment, but their traditional carbon paper forms were becoming cumbersome and costly. Here's how our carbonless forms helped streamline operations and save the company money.The Customer ChallengeThe company produces four copies of the form for each shipment, including the packing slip and bill of lading which details the enclosed merchandize and gives title of that shipment to a specified party. One copy stays at the plant, and the others need to be signed as the shipment reaches each installation. As shipping manager Brad Vance explains, specialized forms accompany each shipment.“We average 50 shipments each week and produce four copies of each shipping form–including the packing slip and bill of lading–one that stays at the three that must be signed as the shipment reaches each installation,” Vance says. “Until four years ago, the four copies of each form were created using carbon paper–an average of 240 sheets per week. Creating the forms and using them in transit was an expensive and messy process.”The RELYCO SolutionAmerican Ordnance needed a way to reduce costs and streamline it processes.
