Optimization and Evaluation of Storage Processes Based on a Selected Example

Technological advancements and market changes force the pursuit of continuous improvement of processes implemented in the enterprise. This is largely due to the increasing demands of customers regarding the price of products, their quality, durability, and delivery time. Society’s changes, including the ongoing Industrial Revolution 4.0 and 5.0, also have an impact on this, affecting the development of logistics. Logistics is one of the essential elements in the functioning of companies, crucial for maintaining their competitiveness, responsible for the fluidity and efficiency of goods delivery. Thanks to technological advancements and changes in international trade, logistics is becoming increasingly complex, while its execution capabilities are growing. However, the mere existence of a logistics department does not automatically guarantee better financial results. To assess the effectiveness of logistics in a company, it is necessary to systematically conduct detailed analyses of related processes. Only such an examination allows answering the question of whether logistics fulfills its role in the company’s structures, which is the aim of this article. In it, an analysis and evaluation of the impact of implementing selected technology on the development of the internal supply chain processes are presented, in this case, concerning the warehousing process. The obtained results are presented using a manufacturing company as an example. A research hypothesis was adopted, assuming that the application of selected Industry 4.0 technological solutions will increase the efficiency of the analyzed supply chain.
