Diagnosis and design intralogistics system
Objective
Define the future intralogistics system of a manufacturing plant
Activities and Tasks
- Analysis and quantification of the AS IS intralogistics system: warehouses, stock levels, use of spaces, material flows, logistics resources, logistics processes (planning, warehouse management, materials management, …), ICT tools, people productivity, logistics costs, …
- Future projection of logistics needs and logistics costs
- Definition of lean, automation and digitization strategies that you want to have in the future
- Identification of improvement opportunities and proposal of improvement solutions: strategies to reduce stocks, packaging standardization, process integration, lay-out changes, new warehouse-shelving systems, new handling-forklift systems, automation projects, organizational changes, process redesign (planning, warehouse management, materials management,…), digitization projects, …
- Proposal for the ideal intralogistics system for the future
- Identification of transformation projects, with investments, savings and ROIs
