What is Warehouse Management?
• Warehouse management involves the
organization and control of warehouse
operations, including receiving, storing, and
dispatching goods. It plays a vital role in supply
chain efficiency and cost reduction.
Challenges in Warehouse
Management
• 1. Bottlenecks in processes due to layout or
equipment limitations.
• 2. Insufficient storage capacity and space
optimization.
• 3. Manual errors in inventory tracking and
order picking.
• 4. Inefficient resource allocation and worker
productivity.
• 5. Lack of advanced technologies for
automation and analysis.
Optimization Methodology
• 1. Analyze the current warehouse system
state:
• - Data collection (process duration,
inventory, etc.).
• - Detection of bottlenecks.
• 2. Propose optimizations based on findings:
• - Layout redesign.
• - Technology integration.
• 3. Control and measure the success of
Case Studies
• 1. Three companies in Croatia were analyzed.
• 2. Common processes: receiving, storing,
order picking, and shipping.
• 3. Key findings:
• - Similar process durations with minor
deviations.
• - Order picking identified as the most time-
consuming process.
Optimization Proposals
• 1. Categorize products to minimize transport
routes.
• 2. Increase storage capacity with narrow aisles
and additional racks.
• 3. Implement advanced WMS for better
inventory tracking.
• 4. Introduce automation technologies like
robotics and AR.
• 5. Redesign shipping zones to avoid
congestion.
Results & Benefits
• 1. Reduced process durations by up to 17%
(FlexSim simulation).
• 2. Improved space utilization by up to 50.6% in
some warehouses.
• 3. Enhanced worker productivity through
better resource allocation.
• 4. Increased accuracy in order picking and
inventory tracking.
Conclusion
• 1. Optimization improves efficiency, reduces
costs, and speeds up processes.
• 2. Combining simple methods and tools
achieves significant improvements.
• 3. Future research: include diverse warehouse
types and advanced technologies.
