Competition among retailers is rising. Delivery is getting faster. Customer expectations are surging.
What do all of these factors lead to? Organizations across all verticals are looking to cut warehousing costs while maintaining a high level of order accuracy -which is an (understandably) difficult juggling act.
The best way to cut costs while keeping strong order accuracy is to choose the right technology to drive your organization forward. We face so many complexities today, from the presence of multichannel, to seemingly endless new technologies. It can be difficult to navigate your way toward the best solution.
Consider Tompkins’ newest paper your “roadmap” for facing this challenge. Put Systems: How a Put System in Your Distribution and Fulfillment Operations Can Overcome Key Challenges explores the advantages of implementing a put system and can help you decide whether it is right for your operation.
Put systems are an innovative and smart solution compared to the cost and complications of a full sorter. They are a game-changing solution for retail store fulfillment, promotions/flash sales, multichannel operations, high growth operations, and operations that are highly volatile. Consider some of the top benefits of a put system:
- Exceptional order accuracy
- Improved labor management
- Reduced training requirements
- Time phased investments
It all comes down to developing processes and operations that are flexible enough to effectively meet all of the requirements to deliver personalized logistics. Download the paper to learn more about put systems and start thinking about the best way to ensure a multichannel operational design that can meet -and exceed -your customers’ expectations.
