Warehousing

The prevalent thinking is that a warehouse is strictly a store room. How wrong can we be?

I remember visiting a consumer goods distribution center in Chicago and watching in awe. The order pickers were given a days work when they arrived and told they could leave when they had finished. There was another visit to a Kodak plant in Stuttgart, Germany which went with no emplyoees at all. No lights on unless someone went into teh building. Finally a tool distribution center with a 30 meter high facility. One of the storage aisles had been out of commission for months until they discovered that there was a deflection on the mast which for safety reasons disabled the motion motors.

Warehousing and distribution centers can be complicated or they can be simple. It is like most things, the more you know the more yioi uare prepared to accept that you don’t know it all.
