Fulfillment floor · Dock to dock

Goods come in on the left and leave on the right. Everything in between is storage, picking and packing, laid out in that order.

The headline

Packing sets the pace

Receiving and storage can run ahead. An order only ships when someone packs it, so the three stations are the accent and the place to add capacity first.

Reading the plan

  • Tall racks hold reserve stock
  • The low flow rack faces the pick lane
  • The conveyor carries packed orders to shipping
  • Gaps in the side walls are dock doors

When to use it

Layout changes, peak season planning, and new-hire walkthroughs. For pick rates by zone, use a bar chart.
