Issue Pack Optimisation
By encouraging customers to order in full-pallet
quantities, or by creating quarter- and/or haft-pallet
load, mush of the counting and manual physical
handling of cases can be avoided both in your
warehouse and also in your’s customer warehouse. In
similar fashion, by encouraging customers to order in
full-case quantities, much of the counting and extra
packaging associated with loose case picking can be
avoided. A pick line profile illustrating the distribution of
the portion of a full pallet of full case requested by
customers frequently reveals an opportunity to reduce
the amount of partial pallet and/or partial case picking
in the warehouse.
