Issue 12 of Picking Perfection Newsletter Will Address Pick Cart Effectiveness

East Granby, CT, October 24, 2014 --(PR.com)-- The twelfth issue of “Picking Perfection” (a weekly e-newsletter) to be released October 27, 2014 will report on how minimizing travel time between picking locations can greatly improve productivity. To achieve this increase in efficiency, companies must develop processes to regularly monitor picking travel times and storage locations. Warehouse operations that still use hard copy pick tickets find that it is not very efficient and prone to human errors. To maximize efficiency world-class warehouse operations adopt pick-to-light technology.

Next week’s newsletter will also address errors that occur in the warehouse are costly. Not only is the number of errors important but who is making the errors. It is useful to track the pickers' work and offer additional training or technology to help the distribution center (DC) workers correct the mistakes. By reducing the pick errors, DCs reduce the cost associated with fixing the mistakes that end up going out the door.

Each week the newsletter will look at best picking practices.
