Warehouse Planning

We support our clients in appraising their existing warehouse concepts and developing, where necessary,  an alternative concept that results in increased efficiency and cost saving. We optimize warehouses in terms of the following, within the framework of complete planning:

  • Dimensions: redesign warehouse or establish more efficient use of storage sspace
  • Warehouse layout: how goods flow through the warehouse and whether the min/max principle regarding service input and moving goods is guaranteed
  • Warehouse system: e.g.: high bay, automatic small-parts, pallet racking, block storage, flow rack, cantilever arm
  • Order picking system, e.g.: single-stage or double-stage order picking, static, dynamic, Pick-by-Light, Pick-by-Voice, Pick-to-Pack, zone order picking, collective orders
  • Application of means of transport, e.g.: stacker, FTS, tugger trains, manual lift truck, drag chain conveyor
  • Product range assignment

Our Approach:

  • Analyze internal organizational structures and processes in the logistic sequences as well as detailed records and visualizations of these sequences
  • Construct strength-weakness profile
  • Reorganize logistic processes in the areas of incoming goods, storage, order picking and internal transport as well as outgoing goods under consumption of total cost potential
  • Create target concept and further specifications, connected with detailed costs for restructuring
  • Tender warehousing and materials handling, support selection procedure
  • Realize and implement suggested warehousing concepts
