A Warehouse Management Decision Support System for a Spare Parts Company

Warehouse management is considered one of the essential components of a supply chain. Inadequate storage space and inefficient available storage are common problems in designing warehouses. This study underlines the need for an effective warehouse management policy because of the limited space for finished goods. The complementary solution is to ensure the highest-selling inventory is easily accessible by placing it at the most accessible point. The position of the finished goods and deciding the sequence of routes to perform the fastest loading and unloading work are critical factors in reaching maximum efficiency. This project aims to provide easy access to stored goods and minimize the travel time between the picking and the placing positions to avoid inefficient routes and disruptions by strategically planning the warehouse layout design and running each operation in the best sequential manner.
