SUCCESS STORIES
A renowned manufacturer of top-tier construction tools and equipment recently acquired a new warehouse facility with the intent of expanding their manufacturing capacity. This strategic move provided the manufacturer with an unprecedented opportunity to overhaul its warehousing operations to accommodate growing inventory and free up valuable manufacturing space.
With part of the manufacturer’s inventory being large and lengthy items, storage constraints were a significant problem in their previous warehouse. This limited their production capacity and overall operational efficiency.
Alpine began by undergoing a Storage Type Analysis (STA) with extra attention being put towards the lengthy items. Leveraging the insights from the STA, the team proceeded to craft an optimized warehouse layout, encompassing racking systems, aisle design, zone allocation, and staging capacity.
The STA and Layout project led to remarkable improvements for the manufacturer, including optimized storage capacity, enhanced operational efficiency, and increased manufacturing space. Additionally, their storage needs for lengthy and uniquely sized items have been met.
