FUNDAMENTALS OF LOGISTICS
Company
RF, DATA COLLECTION AND BARCODING ≠WMS/TMS
Radio Frequency Can Actually Hurt Productivity
• Order picker with paper can be faster than Radio Frequency Picker
– Some gains on searches, errors, etc.
• Key: Strategies that leverage technology like RF, but reduce labor and travel time
– Multi-order picking
– Work flow (Walk paths)
– Material handling integration
– Zone picking
– Pick/sort
– Integrated transportation
– Value added services
– Etc.

Units of Measure Matter
• Each unit of measure means different equipment, labor, etc.
• Unit picking should not be done out of the same location as pallet picking
• Items may need to live in multiple bin locations
• Reservations, putaway logic, replenishment, etc. need to be smart about UOM
• Different channels drive different behaviors (direct to consumer vs. B2B)

SUMMARY
C-Level Executive Value Proposition/Questions
• What if we could reduce your warehouse labor cost (usually one of, if not the single highest
cost to do business) by 20%? Would that enable you to do more business with the same staff,
or reduce staff to save costs?”
• “How many Physical Inventories do you complete per year and at what cost?” “2 per year, and
they cost $20K each
• Equipment that is needed can be utilized longer due to better cube utilization and flow of
goods design (less run time = longer life).
• What would it mean to your company to reduce your inventory cost by 1%?”
