Warehouses are and will remain an essential part of logistics. That hasn’t changed over the years. But the technical progress – such as automatic order picking, shuttle warehouse technology or the trend towards warehouse control by SAP-EWM – is alarming.
So the main question is: Which requirements do warehouse operators really have to meet nowadays?
A smart way of identifying potential, is to involve warehouse employees in this process. A possibility that is used far too rarely but has enormous potential.
