Enabling Warehousing Resiliency
Post Pandemic Forward Thinking
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.
