Modern enterprise warehouse management method gods help!

Warehousing is an important part of the enterprise material distribution, always appear in the logistics of all aspects of the interface, such as production and sales, wholesale and retail, procurement and production, between different modes of transportation conversion and so on. Warehousing link focuses on all the contradictions of upstream and downstream process integration, warehouse management is to realize the integration of logistics processes. Its personnel and equipment configuration and management efficiency in a large program affects the operating costs of the entire supply chain. Failure to ensure the correct purchase, acceptance, quality assurance and shipment will result in wasted time, inventory generation, delayed delivery, increased costs and loss of customer service opportunities. Therefore, it is clear that warehouse management is becoming increasingly important under the pressure to improve service levels, reduce inventory, save time and minimize costs. In practice, warehouse management and the stability of the market and products, the type of material, the type and number of warehousing equipment, the size and number of warehouses, the level of information management and the selection of unit loads have an important correlation. Therefore, in order to carry out effective warehouse management, we must choose the appropriate load unit, make full use of the warehouse and warehousing equipment, minimize the operation links, improve the information management system WMS and to ensure a good operating environment and safety and so on. Only in this way, can well play the role of warehouse management in the supply chain. Effective warehouse management must consider the following aspects: 1. Effective labor management Labor is the most important factor for any successful warehousing. However, with the development of the economy, manual handling procedures are becoming more and more complex, and labor costs account for a large part of inventory costs. The ability to allocate human resources for effective operations is one of the most important criteria for judging efficient warehouse management. Manual management techniques can help warehouse companies that are plagued by employees by assisting managers in making decisions about the number of warehouse employees needed, and engineering labor standards and support systems can be used to evaluate the performance of warehouse workers. In addition, companies should provide incentives to teams of employees rather than individuals to maximize the potential of the team. There are a number of warehouse management systems that lack consideration in labor management and performance appraisal, or lack the articulation of labor management as a function. If the simple introduction of human resources management, but not the combination of logistics and warehousing and lead to the overall information technology of the enterprise disconnect. Timely technology for the China National Materials Storage and Transportation Corporation's warehouse management part of the full consideration of the enterprise on the demand for labor management, can be realized on any day of the number of existing workers and the number of people needed to complete the task to compare, so that the warehouse in the end of the day's operations can be accurately know the various departments and even the performance of each employee. 2. Warehouse layout design and equipment improvements As the hub of the logistics process of the entire system, the warehouse design and layout of a reasonable impact on the efficiency of the entire library operations. For example, the warehouse can be divided into different product categories picking area. In this way, the whole box, unpacking, the whole tray of separate operations, you can avoid the scene of chaos, reduce the goods fall out of damage. In addition, the warehouse equipment improvement is also reflected in the packaging of goods and materials. For a long time, warehousing enterprises in pursuit of "zero inventory", has been investing in warehouse storage environment improvement and warehouse construction to attract the owner of the green squint. But the utilization rate of the warehouse can not always be maintained at 100%, and the storage cycle is getting shorter and shorter. At this point, the investment in cargo packaging has become a warehouse to improve efficiency and competitiveness of a consideration. Advanced packaging can not only provide effective protection for the goods, to attract owners (especially those who teach difficult to save the goods), but also for the warehouse mechanized operations to provide convenience. The introduction of wireless radio frequency and automatic data collection technology to make the standardization of packaging, cluster, can give full play to the effectiveness of loading and unloading handling machinery, thereby improving the efficiency of loading and unloading, handling, stacking and palletizing, accelerating the realization of the mechanization of warehousing operations. On the other hand, modern warehousing information technology, automated receipt and dispatch not only requires the size of the material packaging, specifications uniform uniform, but also requires the material information through the bar code and other technology embodied in the packaging, which is precisely the standardization of material packaging to achieve the goal. Therefore, improve the material packaging, warehouse management automation. At present, most of the domestic WMS software includes RFID technology and other automatic data collection functions. 3. Carry out value-added services as well as the realization of reverse logistics The traditional warehousing of the main revenue from storage fees, so I hope the warehouse is always full. Smart warehousing companies to the shipper to provide services are no longer limited to receipt, storage and delivery, has begun to provide additional value-added services to the shipper or retailer. Some manufacturing industries want to supply products to multiple markets at the same time, and retailers want their customers to receive the goods they need or to specialize in merchandising. The warehouse will process the products (goods) before they are shipped out of the warehouse, designing, combining, packaging and labeling the products according to the needs of the shipper, and then shipping them to different markets. For example, the PC's library processing, that is, the original dispersion of the various computer parts assembled into a customer needs PC, and all this does not require the computer's manufacturer will be dispersed goods out of the warehouse to complete, completely by the warehouse on behalf of the work. Reverse logistics is also showing more and more important position, for many manufacturers or retailers do not have their own logistics warehousing system, warehousing centers to reverse logistics support to become one of the competitive factors, any operation of the nerve center is the warehouse, effective management of warehousing centers product recycling, processing, repair and return of customer service has an extremely important impact. In the book industry logistics system of Timeless Technology, it not only realizes the processing of book recycling by WMS, but also displays the real-time processing (e.g., repair of broken books) in the book warehouse, which strongly supports the expansion of value-added business. 4. The central command center in the warehouse The central command center can be a project management organization that guides the completion of new inventory accounts, reports on the results of the implementation of each part of the progress, and maintains external customer contact. The command center should consist of two parts: people and systems. Warehouse operations are completed in the "four walls" of the warehouse, warehouse management system in addition to the ability to achieve, including inbound and outbound management, inventory management, order management, picking, review, goods and location of the basic information management, replenishment strategy, the library of mobile combinations, such as "walls "In addition to the system functions, but also to consider the warehouse management system and transportation management system, customer management, employee management system between the interface. Under the Warehouse Management System can real-time query product storage locations and storage locations in the supply chain, and the use of real-time information can be accurate, rational distribution of goods in the multi-node network. This is the role of WMS as a command center in the warehouse. Professional logistics software companies generally provide warehousing, distribution, integrated logistics, a series of information technology services, is for the entire logistics process of convergence and unity. Warehouse in the introduction of WMS should also be for the future application of other aspects of logistics information technology to leave a good interface. Although there is a perfect warehouse management system, but the role of people in the command center can not be replaced by technology. Logistics project managers need to be based on a large amount of data to optimize the allocation of limited resources. Warehousing is not an automated business, warehousing has too many uncertainties, the need for warehousing inside and outside the person in charge of familiar with the role of the general control.
