Digital Transformation in Cosmetics Logistics Achieves Paperless Operations
A global cosmetics manufacturer sought to digitalize the Performance Control System used in its distribution centers, replacing paper-based boards that slowed communication and limited operator involvement. Working with EFESO, two logistics centers launched a full digital Proof of Concept (POC)—transforming daily routines, enabling real-time performance visibility, and empowering warehouse teams with digital tools and structured coaching.

Our Client
The client is a global cosmetics manufacturing group recognized for its innovation capabilities and broad international footprint. The company has experienced strong, sustained growth in recent years, expanding its portfolio and production capacity to serve leading beauty brands worldwide.
The Challenge
The distribution centers relied on traditional paper-based PCS boards, creating inefficiencies in communication, meeting routines, and operator engagement. Information did not circulate effectively, and warehouse teams lacked involvement in performance discussions.
The client needed to:
- Replace paper processes with a digital PCS
- Improve information flow and meeting relevance
- Strengthen autonomy of team leaders and key users
- Successfully deploy a Proof of Concept across two logistics centers
Real Results Achieved Together
The digital PCS enabled immediate operational improvements across daily routines, team communication, and operator involvement, building a foundation for broader rollout across the logistics network.
