Warehouse Pick Path & Order Cluster Optimisation for WMS

Use AI to Reduce the Distance Travelled by Your Pickers

There can be a lot of walking in ecommerce order fulfillment. If you use pedestrian picking in your warehouse operation you are paying your staff to walk (or maybe ride) around as they move from slot to slot. They only add value when they pick, count and put items into the order. Even when you have optimised this as much as you can with multi-order or multi-batch picking, fixed pick locations and product slotting there is still a lot of walking time that even the best WMS, you can’t do anything about.

But now you can with Optioryx OptiPick!

Logistics Cloud Co. have partnered with Optioryx to bring you their warehouse optimisation software. Optioryx OptiPick further optimises the distance travelled during picking by shortening the pick path and clustering orders by proximity. Both of these strategies can reduce that wasted travel time by up to 45%. And larger clusters can cut travel by over 60%.

Pick Path Sequencing

Resequence pick locations to
minimise the travel path.
Reduce pick path by 10%-30%

Order Clustering

Group orders together with nearby pick locations to
minimise travel path for a batch of orders.
Reduce pick path by 15%-30%

Proof of concept

Find out how much you can optimise your pick path with a proof of concept analysis based on your historical data.

WMS Integration

Works with your existing system so there is no procedural change, just less travel.

Resequencing

Fixed pick paths in your WMS are not optimal. Guide your pickers in the shortest possible route around your warehouse.

Order Clustering

Build order batches optimised for closely spaced items to minimise the travel distance.

How to Cut Your Warehouse Pick Path By Up To 80%

Explore the outer limits of pick path optimisation with Optioryx OptiPick. OptiPick allows you to optimise pick paths by route and clustering and you can get great results with up to 60% pick path reduction without changing anything else about your operations. But with a bit more effort with better product slotting to concentrate your fast moving items into a smaller fast pick zone and by increasing your order cluster size you could get an astonishing 80% reduction in pick path.
