Consultation Services

A wide array of companies big and small across multiple sectors use warehouse consultants to support them on projects. The scope of projects range from inventory optimisation to full warehouse layout design and warehouse process optimisation. Warehouse consultants normally become engaged on a project when the existing warehouse operation presents a problem for the core business.

One of the key benefits of working with warehouse consultants is that they deal with warehouse change management projects day to day. This experience and knowledge of common pitfalls can significantly reduce the risk of operational/customer issues when implementing these projects.

  • How can we determine the warehouse activity based costs for specific customers and products?
  • Where should our new warehouse be located and how big should it be?
  • We need a warehouse layout design with processes and a list of equipment to procure, how do we go about doing this?
  • We need a new Warehouse management system (WMS), which one should we select?
  • Should we outsource our warehouse and logistics operations, and who are the appropriate service providers?
