Job Description:
Redesign picking methodologies by evaluating and implementing zone, batch, or wave strategies tailored to order profiles and density. Optimize pack station layouts using ergonomic principles and lean manufacturing techniques to maximize output and reduce handler fatigue. Develop sophisticated throughput models to predict operational performance and identify physical or systemic constraints under various volume scenarios. Execute peak capacity simulations to stress-test workflows and staffing plans, ensuring operational stability during high-demand periods. Perform deep-dive root cause analysis on reworks and mis-picks, implementing systemic safeguards to drive down error rates and secondary handling costs. Re-engineer returns grading processes to increase the speed and accuracy of product dispositioning, directly impacting inventory recovery value. Drive reverse flow efficiency improvements by streamlining the physical path of returned goods from the dock back to se...
