What factors should be considered in the layout of warehousing and distribution centers?

Warehouse and distribution center are a vital part of the whole logistics link. Modern management science can improve efficiency. The modern management methods of warehouses and distribution centers have strict assessment systems, which make the logistics "blood" smoother, expand the location of warehouses, make the warehouse "heart" bigger, fully informationize and make the information "nerve" more agile. In the initial stage of the preparation of the warehousing and distribution center, the layout of the warehousing and distribution center should consider factors such as customer distribution, supplier distribution and traffic conditions. See the article for the specific storage and distribution center! 1. What are the modern management methods of the warehousing and distribution center?

1. Strictly implement the assessment system to make the "blood" of logistics smoother.

Receiving and delivery are two important links in logistics. Only by grasping these two links well can the "blood vessels" be unblocked and the "blood" of logistics be effectively circulated. Through the reform and implementation of performance appraisal, the combination of rewards and punishments is formulated and strictly implemented according to the system, which greatly improves the enthusiasm and consciousness of employees. Manager Wang revealed: "In the past, we only sent people and didn't make efforts. During the peak season, the goods delivered by the manufacturer will take several days to be unloaded. The transport driver complained. Now, even if they are busy, they can unload the goods on the same day. " This improvement in efficiency can be seen.

2. Expand the storage location to make the storage "heart" bigger.

A large number of disorderly inventories will inevitably lead to the waste of manpower, financial resources and material resources, reducing the work efficiency of the whole warehouse; In order to make the best use of the resources of the storage center, Nanhu Storage Center has carried out reasonable and scientific systematic management of the inventory, and put forward the method of asking for the storage space. Shelves are divided into orderly layers, so as to improve space utilization as much as possible to increase inventory. For this reason, Nanhu Storage Center has specially established high-shelf three-dimensional storage facilities and hydraulic loading and unloading platforms, which have achieved the purpose of demanding storage space and efficiency from machinery and effectively improved the space utilization rate.

3. A complete set of informatization makes the information "nerve" more agile.

Under the original operation mode, how many products are sold every day? How much did you buy? Not only is it inefficient, but it is also prone to mistakes. In order to meet the distribution needs of many customers, reasonable scheduling of commodity procurement, inventory, logistics and sales management of this scale is inseparable from high-tech means.

Second, what factors should be considered in the layout of warehousing and distribution centers?

1, distribution of customers

The location of warehouse distribution center should first consider the distribution of customers. For the retailer's distribution center, its main customers are supermarkets and retail stores, and most of these customers are located in densely populated places or big cities. In order to improve the service level and reduce the distribution cost, most distribution centers are built near the customer distribution area on the edge of the city.

2. Distribution of suppliers

In addition, the location of warehouse distribution center should consider the distribution area of suppliers. Because all goods in logistics are supplied by suppliers, if logistics is closer to suppliers, the safety inventory of goods can be controlled at a lower level.

3. Traffic conditions

Traffic conditions are one of the important factors that affect the cost and efficiency of logistics distribution, and the inconvenience of transportation will directly affect vehicle distribution. Therefore, we must consider the transportation route of external traffic, as well as the future traffic and the development of neighboring areas. The address should be close to important transportation routes to facilitate delivery and transportation operations.

4. Land conditions

Land and terrain restrictions, for the use of land, we must comply with the restrictions of relevant laws and regulations and urban planning, and try to choose logistics parks or economic development zones.

5. Natural conditions

In the evaluation of logistics land, natural conditions must also be considered, and knowing the local natural environment in advance will help reduce the risk of construction. Avoid being violated.

6. Human resources situation

In warehousing and distribution operations, the main resource demand is human resources, which needs to be considered emphatically.
