Independent warehousing

Operations systems for warehouses in Middle Tennessee

For owner-run independent warehouses with 20 to 499 employees. We find the step where work waits, put a dollar figure on it, and build a daily system on the tools you already own.

What we often hear

Common problems in this industry.

  • Labor is the largest cost you can control, but you see it late.
  • Customers ask for data you can't easily produce.
  • Slotting and labor plans live in spreadsheets that one or two people understand.

The three steps

What the three steps look like here.

  1. Step 1: Walk the floor

    We walk dock to dock and find the step where work waits: receiving, putaway, picking or loading.

  2. Step 2: Build it on your tools

    We connect volume, the labor plan and the time clock, so you see labor cost by customer and shift.

  3. Step 3: Run the cadence

    Your team compares today's volume with today's labor plan in a short daily huddle.
