WAREHOUSE SPACE & LABOR CHALLENGES

PROBLEM
A global manufacturer and distributor of plastics, rubber and chemicals was running out of space in its facilities to store and prepare plastic resin to be shipped to customers across the U.S. In addition to warehouse storage issues, the company struggled to retain forklift operators, which was hurting their productivity and throughput.
SOLUTION
EQ SOLUTIONS consultants provided a full service solution including new warehouse designs that maximized the customer’s storage space and incorporated automation. The new facility layouts featured shuttle racking to increase storage density, as well as AGVs to provide reliable, automated transport of materials. Implementing these solutions helped the company optimize its operations, address labor shortages and significantly increase throughput.

SEMI-AUTOMATION TRANSFORMATION

PROBLEM
A supply chain management company providing third-party logistics (3PL) services wanted greater efficiency and throughput in its warehouses. The company planned to expand and redesign several facilities, and it did not want the hassle of sourcing and coordinating all the suppliers needed to complete these warehouse transformation projects.
SOLUTION
Equipment Depot served as the customer’s consultant and project manager, delivering a comprehensive warehouse solution that included CAD drawings, semi-automated narrow aisle equipment, warehouse racking, conveyors, and numerous other systems & supplies. With Equipment Depot’s consulting support, the 3PL company achieved the high efficiency throughput they desired in their redesigned facilities.

2020: A (STORAGE) SPACE ODYSSEY

PROBLEM
A furniture, appliance and electronics retailer with over 130 locations nationwide was building four new distribution centers and needed to maximize storage capacity. The proposed racking and equipment solution from the company’s long-time material handling provider did not meet the storage requirements. The consumer goods retailer needed to fit more inventory in its DCs.
SOLUTION
After an initial throughput analysis and ROI assessment, Equipment Depot consultants designed a highly efficient alternate layout that created many more pallet positions to accommodate the customer’s warehouse storage goals. The integrated solution incorporated warehouse racking and an optimized fleet of equipment, including very narrow aisle equipment, semi-automated turret trucks, order pickers and other forklifts for loading & unloading trucks.
