Abstract
An efficient warehouse is the basis for a successful supply chain. And an efficient warehouse comprises of optimized processes, efficient resource and space utilization. There is always room for improvement, and we identified that gap in the warehouse we chose, in the form of delayed deliveries, pilferage, underutilization of space and resources and high rate of lost time injuries. And improved the overall efficiency through lean tools, layout improvement, customized WMS and health and safety solutions. This categorization of solutions with respect to problems helped track and measure the performance of the solutions along the implementation.
