Warehouse operation
1 to better deploy SKUs.
Frequently check the speed (frequency) of SKU entry and exit, and reposition SKU according to the speed (frequency).
2. Strengthen the efficiency of man-machine combination.
Calculate the labor cost and find out the best cost structure in operation.
3. Pick up the goods in batches (if conditions permit)
Batch picking allows the picker to visit the SKU factory once and complete multiple orders or a batch of orders at the same time.
4, standardize the line
Create a clear path through sequence selection and shorten the walking time.
5. Complete replenishment.
Generally, there are three ways: batch replenishment, regular replenishment or random replenishment.
stock control
1, grouped inventory
Group the inventory according to the frequency or scale of SKU delivery, and match the correct storage method for SKU.
Step 2 prevent shortages
Set minimum safety stock, prevent out of stock, and automatically report or purchase goods.
3. Track statistics
Tracking inventory quantity regularly, whether weekly, monthly or quarterly, will save a lot of trouble.
4. System management
Develop a clear and documented process for receiving and sending new products to avoid confusion and warehouse explosion caused by unplanned and sudden large-scale return accumulation.
housekeeping
1, commodity information
Rearrange the shelves, reduce the space between each shelf, and put similar products on the same shelf, thus creating more storage space.
2, standardize the process
Check the factory process to ensure that the process from receipt to inventory and from delivery to delivery is unidirectional.
3. Lean management
(1) Keep only essential things to reduce the backlog.
② Design enough passage space for your facility, so that the carrying tools can move easily and find "just the right spacing, effective but not wasteful".
③ Eliminate all unsafe factors that affect channels, so that employees can easily enter SKU and ensure safety.
④ Keep all working spaces clean and free of sundries to prevent inventory damage and potential loss of goods.
safety management
1, visual recognition
Correct signs and labels can keep your warehouse in order.
2. Bundle SKUs
Store SKUs that often pick goods together in the same location to reduce the trip and picking time of pickers and improve the picking efficiency of employees.
3. Staff training
Provide appropriate training for all employees, and be trained or demonstrated by professional, skilled or certified personnel to help employees correct their work attitude and standardize their work, so as to prevent personal injury caused by safety violations.
System tools
1, paperless
Paper lists are easy to make mistakes and lose. It is more convenient and efficient to realize real-time query and export of various information reports through system management.
2. Bar code management
Using barcode, the scanner can quickly and accurately identify/prompt.
3. Label management
Integrating label printers into bags and label parts can improve the accuracy of inventory and orders.
