Thank you! There are different types of picking that can happen in a warehouse. Either it is a pallet picking or handling unit level picking or carton level picking or it is piece picking. In a piece picking the individual pieces of a product is picked from the storage unit. In most cases, equipment like order, picker or stock chasers are used. On the second part of your question, please elaborate what is the kind of issue you are talking about?

Thank you, Avinash.

I will try and make relevant case studies and share here. Having said that there is also a set of videos under the section case studies, please go through them that may provide some additional information as well. Thank you Regards, Alvis Lazarus

@@SupplyChainWay hello Mr Alvis Many thanks Inact I couldn't locate where are those case studies sample

Thanks! Will do! Br, Alvis

Long subject… I will try to cover the basics of ROI in the upcoming videos. Thank you for staying connected. Regards, Alvis Lazarus

I will do a vlog on that. Thank you!

Hello Maheshwari. It is a techniques by which a picker completes a track full of picks without repeating a used trail and also in the best possible time. This is just a preview of this technique. Pick path sequencing basically consolidates the picks in a cut off and in a zone and then aligns the pick list in an order such that there is no need to move around and follow a defined path. It can be done even in a spreadsheet model or in a WMS or in a web based tool as well. I have implemented this in all these 3 ways... and feel free to ask me if you have a follow up question. Regards, Alvis Lazarus Supply Chain Consultant

@@SupplyChainWay How Pick Path is applied in the WMS, does it able to pick based on Order, based on Product that the picker can get the items in bulk (many qty) ? What are the options ?

Most welcome

Hello Pavan. Sure, I will add this to pipeline. Dynamic slotting if not implemented well in a WMS or any other system or even in excel (which is very much possible), will lead to put away issues. Lots of effort goes in fixing it. So overall putaway time goes up leading to productivity loss. Br, Alvis Lazarus Supply Chain Way

Hello Avinash, There is specialised design for this called the lock and key storage design. Br, Alvis

Hello Jeremy, in facility layout there is a key section on product flow optimisation. On that criteria spaghetti diagram can be used to optimise the flow while designing. As you might be aware to optimise the flow you need to also consider the type of storages, their positions and their material handling equipments. So definitely spaghetti diagram has a very important role while designing the overall facility layout. Spaghetti diagram can be done in a manual work study method or even you can do it digitally using sensors and then you can build the spaghetti map in Excel or even in tools like Vizio. If you prefer to simulate it, then you need to build a dynamic model in Excel enabling macro or use simulation tools like Signavio view. I trust this helps. Regards, Alvis Lazarus

Hello Ashmit, the real optimisation challenge starts even before getting the virus in terms of how much space is required. Post that within the decided space how we can use each and every square feet to the best utilisation is the next challenge. Then comes the flow. Br, Alvis

Sure, Syed. Will do the same 👍

I will do it Atharva. Br, Alvis Lazarus

Hello Sukesh, Sure! This video will explain the basics on concepting - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-PyvNslBHOcA.html Br, Alvis Lazarus

@@SupplyChainWay It is so resourceful.

Glad to hear that. Br, Alvis Lazarus

Sure Atul

You are asking about RSQ, right? RSQ is the estimation of the ideal inventory to be stored at different stocking points within a supply chain. The method varies when we try to estimate the ideal qty at line side storage, or RM storage or FG storge at DC / warehouse etc. I'm not sure whether is this what you were asking for? Else, please ask a specific question you have on RSQ, I would be able to share related information. Regards, Alvis Lazarus Supply Chain Consultant

Sure

Will share it :)

Any question on that?

Any specific questions on that?

I will make separate videos. Br, Alvis
