Item slotting plays a pivotal role in warehouse optimization, reducing costly travel time and boosting overall efficiency. Developing the best slotting strategy requires a meticulous evaluation of numerous factors, such as the structure of picking waves, warehouse operational costs, product lifecycle durations, and fluctuations in order volumes.


DistroDynamics leverages advanced analytics to assess all these variables, delivering tailored recommendations for optimal slotting strategies, requirements, cost management, and zone configurations. With these insights, you can achieve maximum picking efficiency and seamless operational flow.

​​​​​​​​​WAREHOUSE LAYOUT

Efficient utilization of warehouse space forms the essential foundation of an optimized operation. The way space is allocated has a profound impact on other critical functions, including picking, replenishment, and stocking. Over-allocating space can lead to excessive travel distances and inflated picking costs, while under-allocating may result in higher replenishment and stocking expenses, increased location turnover, and a heightened risk of stockouts.


DistroDynamics takes the guesswork out of space management by precisely calculating optimal location sizes and determining the ideal location mix. Our advanced solutions ensure maximum storage density in reserve locations while simultaneously minimizing turnover rates in picking locations, driving greater efficiency across your warehouse.
