Consulting Services
- Logistics strategy development
- Network optimization
- Warehouse layout and flow improvement
- Warehouse operations
- Lean/Kaizen
Logistics strategy development utilizes a process to analyze our customer’s business and logistics support requirements to create a comprehensive strategy, tactics, and design focused on achieving our customer’s business goals.
Network optimization helps to maximize the flow of information and product to improve service across multiple customer locations, one customer location, or the entire supply chain. When performed in conjunction with warehouse layout and flow improvement, network optimization studies can help your organization scrutinize – minimize – major capital expenditures for increased plant and equipment footprint. This service includes an overall cost review, comprising a transportation and freight analysis, for the logistics piece of the your business. Arrow's freight analysis can help customers ensure cost/benefit optimization by fully assessing freight carriers/transit times/geographic intensity and auditing contracts. Arrow customers can save time and money as well as improve supply chain and logistics efficiencies.
Warehouse layout and flow improvement helps to lower our customers’ operating costs, improve order and inventory accuracy, and increase productivity and quality through a more effective layout. We focus on delivering improved customer product flow through the warehouse, including a smooth transition to the manufacturing plant floor and a more efficient and effective use of space.
Warehouse operations involve the evaluation of procedures for all inbound and warehouse fulfillment operations, as well as a continuous improvement program and a recommendation for productivity standards.
Lean/Kaizen production process enhancements deliver improvements focused on key processes and systems for customers that want to:
- Improve their daily operations and make transformational changes
- Address losses in profitability due to inefficient processes
- Increase productivity
- Improve flexibility
