Sparck Technologies was selected as a recipient of Supply & Demand Chain Executive’s Top Supply Chain Projects Award for 2021 for its CVP Impack Automated Packaging Solution. This award (formerly known as SDCE 100) spotlights successful and innovative transformation projects that deliver bottom-line value to small, medium and large enterprises across a range of supply chain functions.
Sparck was awarded the 2021 Top Supply Chain Projects Award for its work with MWI Animal Health, a part of AmerisourceBergen and leading distributor of animal health products.
Seeking to support their customer’s evolving needs, MWI Animal Health turned to Sparck’s CVP Impack Automated Packaging Solution to utilize automation in order to ensure its customers received orders on time and in the right condition. Since they implemented the new solution in October 2020, MWI has experienced tremendous savings in transportation and material costs and reduced its environment impact. The CVP Impack creates custom-fit parcels that reduce or eliminate the need for void fill, resulting in savings related to DIM weight charges and materials. MWI’s use of multiple mills allow them to minimize corrugate spend and reduce excessive waste. In addition, the CVP Impack has positively impacted their customer experience, as orders are received on time in a recyclable, easy-open, right-sized box with no void fill. As a result, the right-sized boxes created by the CVP Impack have produced increased savings per carton and increased throughput when compared to a standard stock box.
