Engineering the Warehouse 

A free webinar offered by the Georgia Tech Supply Chain & Logistics Institute. The webinar discussed how managing the warehouse by "ABC" analysis gets you the big obvious efficiencies, but not to overlook yet another level of efficiencies that is as large in aggregate.
"ABC" treats all SKUs as if they were one of three types, and otherwise identical within types. This made sense before computers, but makes little sense now when computers enable us to manage individual SKUs. Saving a centimeter here and five seconds there, when summed over many transactions and many pallets/cases/pieces, can add up to significant efficiencies!
