Issue 9 of Picking Perfection Newsletter Will Address Best Pick To Light Options

Oct. 1, 2014 - PRLog -- The ninth issue of “Picking Perfection” (a weekly e-newsletter) to be released October 6, 2014 reports that one of the complaints of standard Pick-to-light (PTL) installations is operational impact. It is rare, but there are PTL solutions that are "click & go" and can be installed in nearly every environment with minimal operational impact. The best of breed PTLs must offer a simple Graphical User Interface (GUI) which results in a quick training cycle - employees are at full capability in days, not months and without IT engineers for support. The upcoming newsletter will discuss Automating order picking systems, which are perceived by many as necessitating large investments. Ultimately lower level technology investments and procedural picking improvements yield desired productivity improvements in warehouses.

Next week’s newsletter will also address the costliness of employee turnover. The time it takes to replace a material handling worker and achieve similar work productivity from a highly effective current employee makes the issue of employee retention more important than ever.

Each week the newsletter will look at best picking practices.
