Optimized Current Processes to Reduce Overall Warehouse Costs
Opportunities
- Material sales growth and lack of receive/inspect/pick/pack/ship process and systems led to higher than expected overhead
Solution

- Identified opportunities to increase overall efficiency with software improvements, scannable workflow and physical layout
Results
- Anticipate 50% savings in annual warehouse costs (estimated at
$500-600K), which accommodates continued growth
