This second in our Makeover series offers three alternative layouts that streamline orderpicking. Sometimes, the conventional approach to orderpicking is more commonplace than efficient. In the layout below, workers pick an entire order using a rider pallet jack. That makes for long pick paths. In addition, this layout groups the most popular items front and center, maximizing congestion as multiple order pickers jockey to fill orders. Replenishment of the bottom pallet positions is cumbersome at best. All that makes for low throughput and an opportunity to improve orderpicking efficiency. On the next two pages, Bob Silverman, president of consultant Gross & Associates (732-636-2666, offers three alternatives to this conventional orderpicking layout. "As you can see, there are ways to improve what's here for a low or moderate cost," says Silverman. "There's also a chance for an extreme makeover that will deliver the greatest improvements in throughput and efficiency."
