Our client had experienced significant growth for the past years, the warehouse at their SD plant was jammed with RAW, WIP and FG inventory (~160,000 SKUs) and operational bottlenecks/inefficiencies were addressed with hiring additional warehouse operators. Finally the decision was made to perform a profound warehouse streamlining in order to improve efficiency and to free up wasted storage capacity.
The Final Impact
Warehouse capacity increased by 31% (1,550 pallets)
