Top Challenges in the Warehouse

Inaccurate Inventory

When inventory isn’t accurate, you lose crucial time. Not knowing where the stock resides contributes to both lost stock and overstock situations.

Inefficient Picking

Lost time in transit can add up to substantial setbacks, as a minute here and minute there can lead to days of lost productivity per year.

Disorganization

This is usually the number one cause of delays in a warehouse, which means that you should spend more time on organizing your floor than anything else.

Labour Shortage

With lacking enough staff to keep up with orders, manual-driven facilities easily fall behind, and existing staff are stretched too thin.

Optimizing Space Utilization

As SKU variations & inventory volumes grow, particularly during peak seasons, how do you allocate space as workloads vary and shift?

Lack of Integration

Accessing & reporting all your data from different systems wastes time, creates inefficiency and does not provide real-time information.
