RackmetryOptimizing

Where is your operation losing ground?

You've got the racks, the pallet racks, the machines — and a feeling you're not getting the most out of them. Pick what matches you best. Flip a tile to see what that path looks at before you step into it, and come back to try another any time.

Accuracy
Too many errors and returns.
Accuracy
We look at where mis-picks come from — tray and bin readability, look-alike SKUs, labelling, and whether scanning would help — and where accuracy is quietly costing you in returns and rework.
Costs
Our running costs are too high.
Costs
We look at where labour and handling cost is concentrated — how much picking happens from labour-heavy storage, operator allocation across sections, and where effort isn't matching output.
Growth
We're growing and need to keep up.
Growth
We look at whether your current setup can absorb more volume — spare capacity, throughput headroom per section, and which constraint bites first as you scale.
Space
We're running out of room.
Space
We look at how your floor and height are actually used — storage mix, free space, and whether you're leaving vertical room unused that could be reclaimed without moving building.
Speed
Picking is too slow.
Speed
We look at what's slowing picks — pick-route planning, how much comes from slow storage, travel and search time, and where the flow stalls.
Accuracy & Costs
Errors are eating our margin.
Accuracy & Costs
When returns and rework are driving cost, we look at the accuracy chain and the cost it creates together — mis-pick sources, the labour to fix them, and where tightening accuracy pays back fastest.
Accuracy & Speed
We need to be fast and accurate.
Accuracy & Speed
The classic trade-off. We look at where speed is costing accuracy (or the reverse), and whether your layout, routing, and storage mix can give you both rather than forcing a choice.
Costs & Speed
Slow picking is costing us labour.
Costs & Speed
When slow picking and high labour cost go together, we look at the flow as one problem — route planning, storage mix, and operator allocation — to find where speed gains cut cost.
Costs & Growth
Scaling without costs spiralling.
Costs & Growth
When you're growing but worried about cost per order, we look at whether more volume means proportionally more labour — or whether your setup can take more throughput without the cost curve following it.
Growth & Space
Outgrowing the room we have.
Growth & Space
When growth is running into a space limit, we look at reclaiming room from your existing footprint — height use, storage mix, free space — before you consider expanding or moving.
