Deploy the Discipline of Warehouse Resource Planning

Warehouse Planning : A Key Lever for Operational Performance

While planning has traditionally been associated with industrial production lines, its application to warehouses helps tackle three major challenges :

• Erratic Volumes
  The explosion of e-commerce, unpredictable buying behaviors, and massive product returns create unstable warehouse workloads. Precise forecasting is now essential to maintain optimal efficiency.
• Labor Shortage
  A shortage of workers, high turnover, no-shows, and lack of skills reduce warehouse productivity, making it increasingly difficult to attract and retain employees. It has become crucial to maximize the use of every available resource and deploy effective motivation management.
• Growing Risks
  System failures, supply chain disruptions, crises of all kinds, and political changes demand warehouses to constantly adapt. Flexible workload plans are therefore essential to ensure business resilience.

This is where Generix RMS comes into play.

Generix Resource Management System (RMS) is a new AI-powered SaaS application that delivers intelligent forecasting, planning, and analytics in a single environment—designed to optimally leverage all warehouse resources.

Generix RMS is composed of four complementary modules that enable precise resource management in warehouses :

• Productivity Analysis
  Establishes productivity benchmarks by job type using real data from WMS and HR systems. Beyond calculating workload-to-capacity alignment, this module helps identify performance gaps and supports a fair, transparent incentive policy.
• Workload/Capacity Alignment
  The core of RMS: forecast and adjust resources according to upcoming workloads. With proactive management, supervisors can optimize resource allocation in just a few clicks.
• Smart Planning
  RMS leverages advanced operational research algorithms to generate dynamic schedules that account for employee skills, objectives, and warehouse-specific constraints. Team leaders can access an optimized schedule in seconds.
• Smart Forecasting
  This module forecasts short-, medium-, and long-term workloads based on historical data, order typologies, and sales forecasts. It uses machine learning predictive models specially designed for warehouse operations.

The Measurable Benefits of Optimized Resource Management

The adoption of Generix RMS leads to significant gains on several fronts:

• Optimized Utilization Rate
  Avoid overstaffing and understaffing, ensuring maximum use of every resource.
• Reduced Logistics Costs
  Lower reliance on temporary labor, reduced turnover, and optimized training costs.
• Improved Team Retention
  Clear and fair scheduling and enhanced workforce flexibility boost motivation and talent retention.
• Enhanced Resilience
  RMS offers multi-site simulation capabilities, enabling rapid reallocation of resources to absorb activity peaks or address local disruptions.
• Strategic Management
  With a long-term vision, executives can anticipate hiring needs, equipment investments, or automation initiatives. In the medium term, warehouse managers gain more reliable production capacity estimates and improve customer promise fulfillment.
