What You Will Learn
Since the economic down turn of 2000, companies have focused on controlling costs, often by squeezing every possible penny out of the cost of operations to maintain profitability. This does not make the competitive environment any less intense. Companies and their facilities are under increasing pressure to reduce costs, increase customer service and gain competitive advantage. Find out how to control operational costs, increase productivity and unlock that hidden revenue by utilizing advanced supply chain execution capabilities that optimize warehouse resources and provide greater visibility into its workforce.
This presentation will discuss the advancements in slotting optimization and labor management technology and how these can be an effective tool for achieving unprecedented planning and execution ability at peak labor efficiencies—including examples of how labor and slotting functionality can work together to track productivity, determine time and expense of resources and calculate specific labor costs by customer. Efficiency is mission critical in the distribution center. Lower operational costs can mean lower prices for your customers and a competitive advantage for you. The session will help you see how the two key components of labor and slotting can work together to take warehouse productivity to the next plateau.
Key Takeaways:
- How to increase returns from re-slotting resource investments (better paybacks)
- How to improve allocation of personnel for re-slotting activities
- How to gain visibility to potential productivity improvements prior to executing re-slotting moves
