Office Depot Warehouse Operations
Efficiency through information and mobility.
Combining worker productivity and efficiency information with quality control data paints a complete picture of the operational effectiveness of the warehouse while exposing the best opportunities for improving performance.
Time Motion Studies
Using Graphite technology, Office Depot warehouse operations apply time motion studies to measure the performance of workers and identify opportunities for performance improvement.
A study starts by defining the steps, or "motions," making up a process. Next, an observer records the precise time taken for each step. After the data is collected, the results can be analyzed to identify the best opportunities for improvement.
Warehouse Quality Control
Quality control in any large-scale industrial operation is a constant concern. Using Graphite technology, Office Depot deployed Android-based tablet devices to quality assurance technicians for auditing and reviewing quality control checklists.
The electronic collection of data provides more timely and accurate access to the quality control data and dramatically streamlines the process of reviewing the results of audits.
