What is the Smart Warehousing Quick Scan?
CQM’s Smart Warehousing Quick Scan is a short yet effective assessment designed to pinpoint potential improvements in your warehouse or distribution centre. We create a detailed map of the current (AS-IS) situation, analyse it using data, and formulate concrete recommendations that deliver immediate impact. Our approach is data-driven, built on decades of warehouse expertise, and focused on practical applications, enabling you to optimise your warehouse or DC into the future (TO-BE situation).
How does the Quick Scan work?
Within four weeks, the assessment will take place in these key phases:
-
Kick-Off: Introduction to the current processes and challenges through walkthroughs and discussions with staff on the warehouse floor.
-
AS-IS Assessment: Quantitative and qualitative data analysis to uncover current bottlenecks and inefficiencies.
-
Workshop 1: An interactive session combining data insights from our analysis and operational observations. Together, we explore solutions to challenges identified in the AS-IS situation.
-
TO-BE Assessment (incl. Workshop 2): A clear overview of achievable improvements, presented with actionable recommendations and inspiration from our real-world experience.
What will the Quick Scan deliver?
With the Quick Scan, you will:
-
Gain insights into your current situation: A comprehensive data analysis highlighting stock locations, workflows, and space usage.
-
Discover your improvement potential: From workforce management and slotting optimisation to leveraging Digital Twins for enhanced layout and space utilisation.
-
Receive concrete recommendations: No vague advice, just directly implementable, practical solutions to make your warehouse more productive and adaptable.
At the end of the Quick Scan, we present our findings, data analysis, and proposed improvements. With this, you’ll have a clear plan to take your warehouse to the next level, resulting in increased productivity and reduced operational costs.
