Warehouse Management
|
Our experience is warehouses are organic, they are living things, evolving
daily to meet the challenges thrown down by clients and the business, it is a
complex task to make warehousing work effectively and efficiently.
The problems that are faced by the warehouse operations team can be exacerbated
by the lack of support they get from the business, particularly poorly
implemented WM systems.
Businesses often make choices for systems based on their overall requirements,
perhaps even at a global level, commonly localised warehousing requirements are
ignored, or can't be catered for in the generic global system.
Axiom recognises these problems, we understand the global requirements of a
business at a high level, trying to centrally control operations and stocking
levels and meet tight financial budgetary controls.
We also have a detailed and in depth understanding of warehouses and
operational systems. We know that there is a definite trade off between global
control and localised operations, we understand this because we implement total
warehouse solutions and we have a catalogue of clients who experience the
problems highlighted above.
Our systems engineers believe that we should supply systems that work for the
business, not the other way round. We try where ever practical, to tailor the
system to suit the needs, this often means that the customer can carry on
operating their warehouse in the manner they are used to.
Familiarity and not having to re-train is an important consideration to make in
the overall cost of ownership of a complex system.
Axiom will make certain recommendations to change working practices where we
can see obvious benefits to the business and operation, however, we will always
be led by the clients warehouse staff as they above everyone should best
understand the day to day running of the operation.
We have been in the envious position where our systems team and software
engineers have been able to develop our warehouse management solutions with our
clients, all to often companies offer boxed solutions that have developed by
software engineers in isolation to operation staff.
We offer a full range of software modules that can be tailored specifically and
cost effectively to fit your business needs including :-
- Goods Receipt
- Automated Cross Docking
- Manual Cross Docking
- Returns
- Product Put Away
- Bulk Picking
- Wave Picking
- Order Picking
- Packing
- Automated Dispatch
- Manual Dispatch
- Stock Movement
- Stock Counting
Our software modules are designed to operate in a paper based environment, or
utilising the latest wireless based hand held technology. The systems are
controlled via a web browser interface making them platform independent.
