Warehousing
Reducing warehouse expenses in this economy is critical. Time is always at a premium. We conduct onsite warehouse assessments in 2-3 days, followed by a preliminary report. We will then provide a written management summary within one week; providing feedback and recommendations for lowering your warehouse cost while building vested relationships between you, your employees, and your customers.
PLG can help you reduce warehousing costs up to 20%. The following is just a partial list of what we can review within our assessments:
- Managing the labor force.
- Hiring, retention, and attrition.
- Reducing product handling.
- Value stream mapping.
- Team building and vested partnership development.
- Throughput and productivity.
- Metric development for customers and employees.
- Picking and packing methodologies.
- Receiving practices and cross-docking.
- Returns processing and management.
- Managing inventory in the warehouse and transit.
- Replenishment (KanBan).
