Abstract:
The goal of warehouse layout design is to optimize
your warehousing functions and achieve maximum
efficiency and space utilization. A warehouse is
typically divided into areas to support your every day
processes. These areas include: reserve storage,
forward pick, cross docking, shipping, receiving,
assembly/special handling lines, and quality/
inspection area. Designing a new facility starts
with analyzing your current and projected data on
the activities in each of these areas, including the
receiving, shipping and inventory levels. |

Abstract:
Have you ever wondered why employees will
complain about working at a moderate work pace
while earning money, but will actually pay to play
sports, where they will probably work much harder?
This paradox is partially explained by the human
desire to obtain effective performance feedback. |

|
Abstract:
Have you ever wondered what your local store
does with the items that you take back as damaged
or unusable? Most industries today have liberal
returns policies that can quickly tax distribution
networks when large quantities of items go through
the reverse logistics process. Often the distributing
warehouse bears the brunt of these costs and
efforts associated with returns. |
