What we saw
Put-away is decided on the floor.
At 09:14 we saw a pallet come in whose fixed location was full. It went to the nearest free spot and was written on the clipboard. Right now, that clipboard is the only thing that lets anyone find the item later.
What you can do on Monday, without us
- A date sticker on every return as it arrives, not when it is opened.
- Five marked overflow positions near receiving, and one rule.
- A tally on the wall at the packing bench: done before 12:00, before 15:00 or later.
What we could do
Returns: from a pile to a queue you can read
- Now
- Parcels stand against the put-away lane. The form is filled in when the parcel is opened, so nobody can say how long a return takes.
- Next
- Registration on arrival, so the clock starts. A marked lane. A number you read off the wall every week.
- What it is
- We set it up and run it alongside your people for three weeks, one day a week.
You can simply say no to this. Let us know by Friday; if we hear nothing, we will leave it there.
