Warehouse Assessment

We help audit our client's warehouse by collecting data, interviewing employees of the existing practices and helping reduce distribution costs and improve customer service. We constantly strive to provide best practices and conduct objective warehouse assessment which can help distribution center leads, managers and supervisors to better understand the current processes and issues being faced and combine them with what we observe during the site visit. 

During visit we perform thorough audit and get to know existing practices and the reasons behind them from warehouse managers to forklift drivers which helps because everybody is made aware of the importance of their advice and opinion so we can recommend changes which all the employees would be motivated to implement thereby increasing productivity and reducing overall warehouse expenses & costs by 10 to 20 percent.

Here are some highlights of benefits our clients can get by working with us:-

• We research, review and recommend solutions which would serve multiple channels: including e-commerce, direct mail marketing, wholesale and retail  stores.
• We review & audit the supply chain flow, compliance processes, receiving, quality systems for areas of improvement, study client's existing warehouse management systems and processes and finally write our recommendations down.
• From the outbound customer order process perspective, we look for ways to improve order and return turnaround times in facilities. Systems and process improvement includes forward replenishment, pick, pack confirmation, shipping, returns and inventory control, cycle counting and tracking. 
• We study existing warehouse plans and reorganizing the warehouse floor for more efficient process flow and provide CAD drawing for racking, conveyors, automation, and sortation etc. showing flow and work area planning.
• We develop, modify or expand existing functionality of warehouse management systems including tracking strategies.
• We review client's internal KPIs and benchmarking and let them know how they compare to other similar companies in the industry.
