Making the Case for Warehouse Consultants

Warehouse Redesign a Critical Imperative

Facilities that optimize space, accommodate more product, improve labor usage, minimize accidents, and fully leverage material handling equipment are helping operations work smarter, better, and faster.

Plagued by manual operational methods, time-intensive order fulfillment processes, and physical space that wasn't designed to handle the rigors of e-commerce and omni-channel, companies continue to grapple with challenges like decreased productivity, safety problems, wasted space (or, a lack thereof), and customer service problems.

Ensuring that every inch of warehouse and DC space is being used efficiently helps to keep these and other challenges in check, but actually developing a plan of action and putting it in motion takes time, money, and human resources that can present a major challenge for any size operation.

The evolution of the digital supply chain and the supplemental impacts of e-commerce and omni-channel fulfillment are pushing more warehouse managers to reevaluate their current operations. As a result, the need for outside perspective and expertise has increased exponentially.
