Slotting is the process of placing product in your warehouse at the most optimal locations for your order fulfillment operation to pick quicker. Clearly, the faster your team can get the items they need, the more efficient and profitable you will be. However, effective slotting is more than just placing the most popular items in the most accessible locations – it requires a careful consideration of a number of factors, including optimizing storage capacity, limiting the risk of damage to heavy or fragile items and keeping kitted items together.
Fortunately, sophisticated warehouse slotting software can help you manage all these variables and determine the best positioning for all your products. Logic Material Handling, Inc. uses an economically based slotting program which allows your team to visualize, simulate, and analyze your current slotting strategy.
