Description
Summary:Warehouse management has witnessed widespread and rapid development in recent years. This is due to the increasingly complex logistics processes as well as to the dynamic and spectacular development of warehouse design and operation. The smooth functioning of the stock and the warehouse plays a very important role in the life of every production company, so it is imperative to continuously review processes and to apply new procedures to increase efficiency. Results: When storing the phase products, the speed of the internal material flow processes, including the rate of storage, must always be proportional to the output of warehouses. Likewise, the storage capacity of the warehouse must correspond to the input needs of the areas it supplies. The constantly changing needs can be balanced by inserting buffers. In addition, storage capacities must be prepared in advance for changing space needs. Thus, in one year, the 64-36% removal ratio between the previous 2 warehouses changed to 56-44%, due to changing trends. This requires regular monitoring of the forecasts and management of the inventory strategy to be followed. Conclusion: During our research we have found that by updating the data quarterly, we can ensure the proper distribution of stock and optimum utilization of warehouses.
