WAREHOUSE AUTOMATION

Context and objectives

Context:

One of the European leaders in e-commerce has decided to automate one of his warehouses in order to provide its customers with a 24 hours delivery service for products available in stock and to be able to dispatch 30,000 parcels / day.

Automation will have a profound impact on operating methods, whether on technical, organizational (interaction with other team members) or ergonomic aspects (shift work, sit/stand work).

Objectives: 

• Securing the implementation of the coaching plan defined during a previous project
• Securing the launch of the automated warehouse under the best conditions

• Animating workshops and trainings for change management
• Establishing a communication strategy
• Managing the hiring process and drafting job descriptions
• Monitoring the project’s KPIs

RESULTS

• + 30 000 parcels shipped per day
