Splits packing line/ Buzz Pack to COMFORTclose
01
Staff Reduction.
If we calculate conservatively, that one person in a packing line costs £18 a hour to include NI and pension contributions the annual cost per individual is a minimum of £37,440 this doesn't take into account absence or holiday cover.
This is based on a 5 day working week @40hrs a week.
02
Intralogistics/ Time and Motion.
The COMFORTclose system integrated into a packing line with the buzz pack machine reduces the amount of time moving boxes to and from packing stations.
It also reduces the time it takes to seal a box top and bottom manually, perfectly, every time.
On average a good starting point is that the integration of COMFORTclose into a packing line with Buzz Pack machine will save 15 mins per hour per person.
So therefore an hourly saving of £4.50.
Based on the £18 an hour calculation.
This is an annual saving of £9,360 per person.
03
Portion Control/ Quality Assurance
The COMFORTclose will tape the boxes top and bottom exactly the same each and every time, ensuring quality control and portion control.
Therefore the the "pack cost" is consistent.
In terms of the end user unboxing experience, the COMFORTclose wet tape is not only applied consistently every time, but is also tamper proof and strong.
Combined with the Buzz Pack box strength and integrity, we ensure the products safe during transport, with a professional, consistent end user unboxing experience, which enhances the brand integrity of Power Tool Products.
04
COMFORTclose/ Cost/ ROI
The invest required for a COMFORTclose is £36,000.
If we calculate the ROI based on reducing the packing process by X1 person @ £37,400 the ROI is under 12 months
If we include the time and motion saving of £9,360 for X1 person the return on investment is closer to 9 months.
If the Buzz Pack and COMFORTclose packing line reduces the packing process by X2 people @£74,880 then the ROI.. NOT including any additional time and motion savings, the ROI is closer to 5 months.
Not forgetting to consider the pack quality benefits too of course
