The Solution
Conducted consulting & assessment phase of Automated Data Analytics service
Discovered root cause of inefficiency in the stocking process by analyzing historical travel log data to reveal factors impacting pickup times, specifically for each type of goods.
Loading goods to shelves showed the most impact to pick-up time as loading was managed by a set of basic rules that were fixed and outdated.
