ATS Continuum for the Warehouse
Description Your warehouse is being asked to deliver more goods, more accurately and in more combinations than ever before. Customers demand rapid response, with orders being picked, packed and shipped, often on a same-day basis. Your ERP/host system requires accurate inventory levels, locations and inventory status in order to properly process customer orders and generate manufacturing plans and schedules.
Your management has made it clear. They want you to:
Decrease delivery cycles
Increase order and shipping accuracy
Improve worker productivity
Optimize space utilization
Lower the warehouse/distribution cost per unit
Either your operation thrives in this environment, or management looks for alternatives.
As a warehouse manager, you can’t let that happen. To meet demands, you ask yourself these questions every day:
Is the inventory accurate?
Can it be located?
What is the status of a customer’s order – right now?
Is my inventory properly statused?
Are we picking accurately and efficiently?
Can we plan labor availability and inventory levels for future shipments?
Do we have the necessary lot control, serial control or date control?
Can we implement and assess vendor quality?
Can we operate multiple warehouses, if need be?
Can we manage consigned inventories?
