Digital Transformation of Nationwide Warehouse Project Management: The Success Story of Genesis Warehouse with KANNA

Instant Reports, Clear Schedules

— Could you tell us about your company and its business?

Ms. Winda: Genesis Warehouse is one of the entities under the Genesis brand, headquartered in Kelapa Gading. The company operates in the real estate industry, specializing in warehouse rentals not only in Kelapa Gading but also in Karawang, Cikarang, Marunda, Manado, and other regions outside Java. This expansive footprint demands precise coordination and consistent project oversight across multiple locations. 

— What problems did you encounter before implementing KANNA?
Ms. Winda: Before we started using KANNA, managing our projects was really challenging because all our data was scattered across emails and WhatsApp, making it hard to track revisions and updates. Important details often got lost in long chat threads, and engineers had to manually upload photos from their phones to laptops before emailing them, which was time-consuming and inefficient. Without a centralized platform, different teams were working with different information, causing confusion, miscommunication, and delays in coordination between the site and office teams.

The Ultimate Solution: KANNA as a Data Center and a Project Coordinator

— Why did you decide to implement KANNA? What key factors or features influenced your decision?
Ms. Winda: KANNA stood out for its practicality and efficiency. Engineers and supervisors could easily send updates directly from the field using their mobile phones, automatically syncing to the KANNA cloud system. This feature not only prevented local memory overload but also ensured that all data—including reports, photos, and revisions—was well-organized and accessible in one place.

KANNA’s report creation feature was also a major factor, allowing teams to generate structured reports instantly and eliminate the manual collation of project updates. Overall, KANNA provided the team with a seamless, unified way to document and track field activities.
