Abstract :

The measurement of processes with the aid of computer resources and through the use of statistics has shown to be a competitive differential for organizations. This type of analysis can aid in a characteristic look at critical processes. In the day to day of an organization it is necessary to exist a holistic vision to obtain acceptable results; inventory management in the freight forwarding and dispatching part is a critical activity in which any out of control situation can generate a perceived failure by the end customer. Checking the difference between two systems of conference and dispatch of merchandise through software that allows considerable and reliable results demonstrates the need for adaptations or improvements for certain systems. The use of the manual system through printed documentation is of considerable value to small businesses, since the adherence of an automated system such as WMS has a significant cost. Careful consideration of processes has become important because each task performed has its cost and added value. Time is a precious and expensive resource; trying to minimize the processing of goods and delivering them with quality is of great importance because an unfulfilled trade agreement or a delayed delivery as well as other potential failures that can happen in the process will ing unnecessary costs to the company. Therefore, the more an organization studies, analyzes and improves its processes, the more competitive it will be, because it will meet all the precepts for which it was created.
