Office Depot
High performance order picking system
Office Depot is one of the world's leading providers of office supplies (own brand and other brands), office machines and computers, computer software, office furniture and other business products and services.
By controlling the intervals between parcels, throughput was increased to 5,400 units per hour.
The incoming orders at Office Depot differ greatly in size, type of products, number of items etc. Because of this heterogeneous order structure, the 24-hour service and the planned same-day delivery, Office Depot needed a customised logistics solution by SSI SCHAEFER.
With the compact arrangement of picking areas, cutting-edge conveying systems and integration of specifically developed technologies for picking small parts, throughput has been increased considerably.
Project objectives:
- Doubling the throughput
- Set up a highly efficient shipping warehouse
- Ergonomic workstation design for staff
- Achieve high quality standards
- Guarantee same-day delivery
- Use cutting-edge technology
