Do you remember that year when Santa left you clothes under the tree instead of the toy you asked for?

Actually, it was not because you behaved badly that year. Today we can tell you that it was actually due to a picking error. Yes, your toy ended up under the wrong tree and another girl or boy was able to enjoy it.

One of the direct consequences of COVID-19 within this worldwide crisis is the sudden alteration in human behaviour, either due to social alarm or due to restrictions issued by governments.

Combining solutions may be the best idea for an e-commerce business

Not all cases are the same and each one should be studied individually, but in many Pick To Light projects in e-commerce it is possible to use one solution for more than one process.

In the previous case (article link), Picking Carts were used as sorting walls in reverse logistics. After the process has been completed, they can be used for order picking.

Orders to the warehouse can be crossed with incoming goods from returns and then consolidated in a Put To Wall sorting wall.

As indicated in the header, the most successful projects are those where a complete global solution to needs is sought and not just a part of it. Therefore, it can be interesting to analyse other solutions that can offer improved traceability, order picking process, etc. (link solutions).

The Cross Docking solution is particularly interesting for textile customers who have a high turnover of items by campaigns, seasons, etc.

All of them will contribute to continuous improvement, reduction in times, reduction in errors, etc., which in turn will lead to a reduction in operating costs.

Each solution offers different returns and the right balance must be found in order to get a good return on investment.

These are some of the solutions that can be implemented based on Pick To Light technology. For more information visit www.picktolightsystems.com or contact us at info@ptlsystems.com where one of our experts will study your needs.
