Methodology for efficiency improvement in warehouses: a case study from the winter sports equipment industry
Journal Title: Proceedings in Manufacturing Systems - Year 2018, Vol 13, Issue 3
Abstract
The paper considers a methodology for efficiency improvement in warehouses. The methodology is developed for the needs of the winter sports equipment division of Amer Sports Corporation. Key aspects of the methodology are the concept development of balanced scorecard for the distribution logistics and the application of lean methods in the warehouse. The main criteria for evaluation of the warehouse processes are examined. The paper presents the implementation of balanced scorecard as a tool for logistics processes and costs monitoring and management decisions in the Amer Sports distribution center for winter sports equipment. The application of the lean methods in the warehouse are also discussed. The paper presents also the improvements achieved by applying the methodology in the warehouse.
