For a whole goods distributor improving warehouse performance meant:

• Their warehouse workers couldn’t cherry pick select orders
• All the difficult or easy orders wouldn’t be filled by just one person
• Developing simple picking, packing and shipping processes, so warehouse workers (with no prior training) could easily start picking orders.

How did Front Line Systems improve warehouse performance?

• We mounted a monitor above the picking table with the list of orders that needed to be picked.
• The list of orders was also queued up on the warehouse workers’ handhelds.
• Everyone in the warehouse now had visibility and access to the information.

What was the goal?

Make it extremely easy for new warehouse workers to start picking orders. The client also wanted to increase transparency and accountability in the warehouse.

The solution to improve warehouse performance

All the warehouse workers were trained to look at a monitor to identify and then pick the next order in queue. There was no more partiality when picking orders. This new way of picking also led to greater transparency and accountability for everyone.
