What is rework and what does it mean for your business? Many businesses find that outsourcing their rework needs to a third-party logistics (3PL) provider is the best way to go. Let’s take a closer look at what rework services entail and why they might be a good option for your company.

What is Reworking?

Rework refers to taking an existing order that has been partially or fully filled and modifying it in some way. Simply put, any products that have been damaged, defective, or incorrectly made need to be corrected before being dispatched.

Reworking can happen both in the production stage of the product or the transportation of the product to the customer. These services are often provided by 3PLs (third-party logistics providers) such as ourselves (Adstral Fulfilment).

We are able to add, delete, or change product labels; re-package items; or perform other tasks to get the order ready for shipment. 

Rework can be done for a variety of reasons, including:

  • To correct the damage that occurred during the shipping process
  • To fix products that were defective or incorrectly made
  • To improve the quality of a product
  • Product labelling is inaccurate
  • A product instruction manual needs to be replaced
  • A product component needs to be replaced
  • An item is missing from your packaging
  • A product and/or box is damaged

Reworking can be time-consuming and costly, but it is often necessary to ensure that products meet customer expectations. When done correctly, reworking can result in satisfied customers and improved sales.

Rework Services – Save your Business Time and Money

Outsourcing rework to a 3PL can help you avoid the cost and hassle of having to do it yourself. In most cases, 3PL providers have the staff and resources in place to get the job done quickly and efficiently. This can free up your time so you can focus on other aspects of your business. Additionally, using a rework service can help you avoid the cost of having to train your own staff to do the work.

Rework Services – Customised to Meet your Needs

When you outsource rework to a 3PL provider, you’ll have the opportunity to customise the services to meet your specific needs. This could involve specifying the types of rework that need to be done, setting deadlines, and providing other instructions. 3PL providers will work with you to ensure that your rework needs are being met.

If you’re not happy with the way your orders are being handled, rework services can help. By outsourcing rework to a 3PL, you can ensure that your orders will be processed correctly and in a timely manner. This could lead to improved customer satisfaction levels and increased repeat business.
