With the increase of volume from Omnichannels and e-commerce demand on warehouse functions, efficiency in performance and removing of waste is essential.  Lean warehousing encompasses the Toyota Automotive Manufacturing Philosophy: aiming to eliminate any activity or process step that uses resources which are not adding value to the outcome.  Our lean warehousing improvement process and observation inspection on existing warehouse operations encompass:

​

• Go, See and ask WHY?  -  with respect to all shareholders

• Identify waste ‘MUDA’ (Japanese word for waste) 

• Measure

• Analyse

• Suggest improvements and alternate solutions

• Implement selected solutions with the client's team (led by client’s champion)

• Control outcome and continuous improvement to achieve optimum results

 

From AO Logistics Solutions experience, applying lean warehousing principles and solutions can yield savings between 20 – 50% on operational costs.
