Abstract

A large global pharmaceutical manufacturer has a fully automated warehouse in their facilities. This warehouse is divided into two sections: fast-moving materials and slow-moving materials. In the context of the fully automated warehouse, a reduction of material movements translates into financial savings since it will decrease energy consumption and lower wear and tear on the equipment. To achieve these benefits, we propose a new approach that redefines the material categories and their placement within the warehouse. The strategy proposed is to forecast the movements and materials, and then to optimize the storage of materials within the warehouse. By doing so, we aim to streamline warehouse operations, improving efficiency and cost-effectiveness.
