Continuous Improvement - Warehouse Optimization/Design Capacity/Demand Planning: “WorkSmart” Excel Warehouse Optimization Management toolDesigned and built, a VBA based warehouse optimization management tool within Excel Led implementation of the new tool to 16 warehouses throughout the UK. Facilitated workshops with senior warehouse managers to configure the tool according to individual warehouse constraints and bespoke requirements. Summary of tools functionality:- Calculates optimal position and space requirements for all SKU’s based on internal warehouse configuration using warehouse slotting techniques.- Calculates replenishment and picking cost for all SKU’s in its current warehouse position vs its ideal Warehouse position. - Calculates a manpower plan for the current and ideal scenarios, highlighting how the warehouse is performing.- Suggests most beneficial SKU warehouse moves in order to reduce costs and improve performance.Key achievements• Increased efficiency in warehouses attributed to this tool equated to a 5 FTE saving across the UK. • Product Swapping – Identified SKU’s where warehouse locations could to be swapped reducing the time required to make warehouse moves by 50% Show less

Supply Chain Improvements:Improve late deliveries from Slow moving RDC• Centralised slow-moving platform RDC’s reported increased % of customers’ orders not meeting specified delivery times due missing depart times, or breaking Trunker capacities. • Identified weaknesses in systems logic in categorising “Slow” moving SKU’s. 800 Fast moving SKU’s were being processed at the slow moving RDC rather than the local DC’s.

Key achievements• Re-evaluated logic, ran test scenarios via an Excel which led to a 10% reduction of orders, saving 1 hour off their picking shift and reduced the % of late deliveries by 30%. WMS Solutions: Key member of the team that designed, tested and implemented RF warehouse management system used in 18 warehouses across the UK. Modules included, good inwards, replenishment of pick faces, order well management, perpetual inventory, RF picking, dispatch scanning and electronic proof of deliveryKey achievements• RF Perpetual Inventory – Led to a 100% reduction in the number of branches requiring an annual stock take - equating to a saving of £200,000 per annum.• RF Barcode Picking solution – reduced error rates from 0.2% to 0.05% of all order lines resulting in an annual cost saving of £430,000• EPOD system reduced customer debt by £8million in the first year Show less
