99% On-Time Dispatch

Delivery chart time for label production at Positive ID LabelsDelivery time for customers is a key reason to stay or leave a label supplier. With your business potentially on-stop if there is a break down in your supply chain, we know the importance of delivering our end of the deal.

We have been beavering away on our IT systems and uncovering more data on our performance. Following on from October’s bumper sales month of £210k, we made a concerted effort to ensure delivery times were not impacted by the bulk of work we received.

We are proud to announce our delivery performance for November 2018 and let the world know we made 65 million labels that month!

Dedicated work by all the team and some welcome overtime for Christmas by a few of our awesome production staff, delivered that result! We managed to get 52% of the orders we received dispatched within 3 days! 23% were delivered within the 5 day timeframe and 24% within 9 days. Unfortunately, 0.9% of orders were delivered later than that.

Our Delivery Targets

We have been working hard on delivering orders more quickly for our customers for the last couple of years. We have made significant improvements in delivery time by managing our operations better and improving our IT systems to identify bottlenecks in production.

Targets are there to be achieved and once achieved, we aim to stretch our performance. Our target is to deliver 100% of orders within 10 days so we failed to deliver that, but only just!

We also aim to deliver 80% of orders within 5 days too but only managed 75% in November. We will work on that too.

Once we have achieved these targets we will work on improving them further but we mustn’t get ahead of ourselves!

Why do we fail to meet our 10 day deadline?

We are an honest family run company so we don’t mind sharing with you the problems we might face in delivering your goods as quickly as possible. Each case is unique as to why there is a delay but there are a few common reasons why we might fail to meet our targets on production and delivery:

Commenting on the result, Danny Carr Production Director said:

We have been growing rapidly over the last few years and delivery times were under pressure. 18 months ago, we probably had 10% of production taking 10 days or longer to reach dispatch. It was unacceptable and we needed to take action.

We have managed to improve our ordering system to help identify problems with delivery before they become critical. Identifying issues further up the pipeline allows us to focus on the problem before it becomes critical and resolve it before we let a customer down.

The staff have all worked hard to make sure their jobs are done quickly and efficiently and I am very grateful for their dedication to improving delivery for our customers as I hope our customers are too.
