JACKSONVILLE, Fla., May 27, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- There's no room for mistakes in today's economy-and that includes building or re-engineering distribution centers.
Because these facilities are critical components of the supply chain, they require a detailed planning process to ensure they meet return on investment expectations.
More than ever, the "measure twice, cut once" rule applies, since having to tack on additional capital outlays five, six, seven years down the road is costly. The projection of inventory and how it is to be stored and moved are the driving factors, as a 20% deviation on a 200,000 square foot storage area can result in a 40,000 square foot shortfall or surplus.
A well-planned material handling system design for a warehouse or distribution center offers multiple advantages in the fight to remain competitive and successful. By taking the necessary steps to see the project through from start to finish, the result will be a facility that operates efficiently, uses space effectively, maintains cost control, and in the end achieves its ultimate goal of meeting expectations.
