Driving Efficiency

Storage density in balance with order picking leads to efficient space utilization and hence reduces storage costs. Often, this is the most critical aspect of a storage system. We at SILVER LINING, aggressively fine-tune your warehouse to drive efficiency.

Our process to drive efficiency includes
Data-Driven Problem Solving: The devil is in the detail. Most warehousing operations seem to work fine on the surface, but when we dig deeper, we realize that there is a lot of room for improvement. We observe the systems, processes and operating procedures in your current operations, collect data and analyze it to identify and remove inefficiencies.

Storage Layout Optimization: While the movement of goods might seem trivial within the broader scope of warehousing operations, this is one of the most time-consuming activities within a warehouse. We identify the fast and the slow moving goods in your warehouse and design a storage system that minimizes movement and saves you time and resources.

The Right Storage System: The right racking and shelving system plays a key role in optimizing the warehouse. Depending on the goods to be stored, several types of racking systems with various applications are employed.

Thorough recommendations are made based on several factors such as improved product life, storage density, forklift access, picking profiles and intended capacity.
