The first step is to ensure the rationalization of warehouse management costs.
It seems that the most convenient step is to make a thorough plan when opening the warehouse, such as carefully calculating the labor cost of the warehouse and accurately calculating the minimum inventory. Warehouse management system should do the following
1, the optimal utilization of warehouse space. Warehouse managers need to find the most practical and suitable solution from all kinds of calculation data according to the size, weight and special operation requirements of the goods, and find the best storage space for the products in the warehouse.
2. Reduce inefficient operation to the lowest point and try to avoid duplication of work.
3. Check the inventory repeatedly. This work must be put into storage according to the daily work arrangement, and the raw materials and finished products can only be put into storage after inspection. The keeper shall check the inspection conclusion and certificate issued by the inspector. Register the stored items, use existing or new labels, and use card labels to indicate the specifications, models, names and quantities of the items, so as to ensure that the accounts, cards and items are consistent. Only by repeatedly counting the types and quantities of products in the warehouse can we ensure the normal operation of the warehouse management system and improve the accuracy of inventory at any time.
4. Strengthen management. This is almost the responsibility and unshirkable obligation of the warehouse administrator who is busy with distribution every day.
5. Both manual operation and computer-aided management must follow the rules to improve the overall rigor, reliability and safety of goods storage.
6. Highlighting customer service is always the primary task of the company and even the warehouse management system.
Step two, choose to own? Cross function? The executive team of.
Many people think that the warehouse management system is neither sales nor procurement. What is necessary? Cross function? Senior management team? Although all departments within the company are not necessarily directly connected with the warehouse management system, they often come into contact with the warehouse business in their work. Therefore, the following work is also an important part of the warehouse management system:
1, purchasing often requires information collection, quantity counting, quality inspection, data checking, receipt in place and repeated counting, so as to ensure the normal function of the warehouse management system, realize effective inventory control, reduce extra purchases, and ensure that the inventory meets the needs of customer orders or production plans.
2. The quality of sales not only directly affects the satisfaction of customers, but also affects the business development of the company. Therefore, the warehouse management system must be closely linked with the company's sales department, and enjoy the information from the beginning, especially the summary of customer information.
3. The information system must work normally. Without the strong support of information system, the internal contact of each department and even each administrator suddenly becomes dull, and warehouse management system. Even the whole company management system will be paralyzed. Information system is the key to play the role of cross-functional echelon.
The third step is to verify the seller who is responsible for the supply.
The purchase channel, especially the seller who is responsible for the supply, is the root cause of poor product quality, insufficient quantity or piles of handling problems. Therefore, when verifying the seller who is responsible for the supply, don't dwell on the price of the product and ignore the key issues such as product quality, especially pay attention to the seller's reputation, which is the decisive factor for the authenticity. Good reputation is the guarantee of product quality. The warehouse must have a set of plans and management measures to verify the seller who is responsible for the supply, and even can take it? Shop around? Traditional methods to identify sellers' authenticity.
The fourth step is to vigorously apply advanced technology.
Nowadays, the most widely used technology in warehouse management is automatic identification technology such as bar code, which can automatically record the flow direction of goods no matter where the logistics flows. The combination of bar code technology and information processing technology helps us to make rational and effective use of warehouse space and provide customers with the best service at the fastest, most correct and lowest cost. The barcode solution can make a written report on every commodity and every location in the warehouse, and make a regular inventory of the reservoir area. On the basis of minimizing manual input, it can ensure that the error rate is reduced to zero and collect a large amount of data at high speed.
The warehouse keeper scans the goods position with the hand-held barcode terminal, and then scans the corresponding article number on the goods position number to realize the inventory of goods in the warehouse. Then the data collected by the bar code terminal is transmitted to the computer through the communication interface. If a bar code printer is configured in the system, it can print various labels, such as the labels of cargo holds and shelves; A label used to identify an article, indicating the batch number and quantity. Bar code technology is like a link, which connects the information that occurs in all stages of product life cycle, and can track the whole process of product from production to sales, so that enterprises are in a favorable position in the fierce market competition. Bar code can ensure the accuracy of data, and it is convenient and fast to realize the modern management of warehouse management by using bar code equipment.
Therefore, to implement the automation of warehouse management, it is necessary to successfully sell automation projects like selling new products, regard the company and warehouse as the internal market of their products, and introduce the functions, advantages and benefits of the automated warehouse management system to employees, so that everyone can know fairly well. At the same time, organize warehouse employees to seriously discuss with company employees, express their opinions and criticize the warehouse management system.
It is suggested to continuously improve the warehouse management system.
The fifth step is to summarize and review the management procedures.
Generally speaking, the warehouse management system is a systematic implementation, but it is not. The warehouse system itself is an engineering project, which needs to have its own set of operation processes, including selection, receiving, repeated inventory, packaging, purchasing, processing, returning goods and so on. All these are restricted by warehouse management scheme or warehouse management system engineering project. Its specific deployment includes:
1. When making the overall plan, all necessary procedures must be detailed and thoughtful.
2. Analyze the program, check and compare it to ensure that the program is completely consistent with every link of the new warehouse management system, and then write the program into a file for compliance in daily work.
3. Improve the past management procedures or fully implement new management procedures.
The sixth step is to further accept the assessment.
Every step of the procedure of the warehouse management system must be checked to measure its accuracy and operational norms, and to find out in advance whether the hidden dangers in the procedure or planning are the problems of software suppliers or managers. The main purpose of recording all the evaluation details is to ensure that the customer service will not be damaged, and to provide necessary information for the daily work of the warehouse and the training plan of the warehouse manager.
Step 7, make a training plan.
The purpose of training is to make the warehouse management system run normally, so the manager of the warehouse management system must train the employees. Not only new employees, but also old warehouse employees. Only well-trained employees can correctly implement and operate the management system and give full play to its advantages.
Make love. All development training plans must be documented, including training deployment, process, objectives, training targets, training time and place, training scale, training materials, teacher sources, examination syllabus, in-depth training plan, etc. And consciously create a mechanism aimed at encouraging warehouse employees to compete equally in the training process.
