The increase of stock keeping units (SKUs) in warehouse operations has had a significant impact on accuracy rates. As online retailers continue to adjust their product offerings to match consumer demand, their warehouse operations must maintain the flexibility to manage this growth — and accuracy — as they pick, pack, ship and receive.
Typically, businesses home in on a single operational or process challenge, and then invest in a solution that solely resolves that issue. However, to achieve the best results, it’s important to look holistically at the entire operation — including put-away, restocking, replenishment, pick-and-pack, and let-down — and then consider applying scalable and flexible technology solutions in multiple areas.
This white paper explores how selecting adaptable technologies that can grow alongside their e-commerce operations — such as robotics paired with voice technology — contributes to the establishment of best-in-class processes and workflows.
