Solution: Our firm was engaged to assess and re-engineer the facility and operations. Our analysis revealed the cost overruns resulted from poor facility layout; lack of slotting methodology; lack of system driven processes; and, no documented processes.
Results: The assessment and a 9-month period of re-engineering and change management resulted in: Reconfigured racking and implemented slotting methods - storage capacity increased 40%; Systems changes and process improvements - labor cost per unit decreased 32%; Productivity Improvements - Daily through-put increased by 38%.
The account P&L went from losing $1.2 million to a favorable $200K the next year.
