A new success! A medical technology distribution center increases picking productivity by 27% with Pulse. 30,000 order lines a day, picked by 60 pickers. Their (well-known) WMS already handled the clustering and the pick sequence. Routes were created based on static business rules and the classic pick snake sequence. Those pick routes took way longer than they needed to. Pulse now runs on top of their existing WMS, clustering orders onto each trolley, while apply 3D packing to fit different box sizes on multiple different trolley shelves. This maximizes trolley utilization while minimizing walk distance. The physical process stayed the same. The results: -> 15% increase in picking productivity in the first weeks of the go-live -> weeks later: 27% increase in picking productivity A look at what a practical AI looks like in the WMS.

A warehouse slotting plan should not be optimizing just one thing. It balances walk distance against congestion, stackability and replenishment effort, inside the compliance rules. Focusing too much on walk distance is wrong in peak for some warehouses, because concentrating high-velocity SKUs reduces pick distance but increases congestion. Two things worth doing before peak volumes come in: • Raise the importance of congestion (relative to walk distance) in your slotting plan. Accept a slightly longer distance to have lower congestion waiting times. • Fix order clustering first. Which orders are picked together determines how many pickers are in the same aisle/area. Below more detail about how to tackle the congestion-distance balance in your slotting plan during peak period . Optioryx
