WAREHOUSING

Course: Terminologa Professor: Dr. Leopoldo Santibaez J. Student: Cristin Valds H.

INTRODUCTION

A warehouse is a physical space for the storage of goods within the supply chain. The store is an essential infrastructure for the activity of all types of traders. Constituting itself as a fundamental part of factories, industries of all kinds, and spaces for the transport (ports, airports, railways).

INTRODUCTION
Users of these services include:

Farmers,

ranchers,

industries,

transporters,

importers, exporters, traders, brokers, among other.

PRODUCTS STORED

In a store you can drop as many raw materials as semi-finished or finished product waiting to be transferred to the next link in the supply chain.

The warehouse is considered as a central regulator of the flow of goods between the availability and the need of manufacturers, distributors and consumers

PRODUCTS STORED
For example:

Dangerous Substances.

Non-perishable and perishable food.

Building materials. Among others

INFRASTRUCTURE
They are usually large, flat buildings, arranged in the industrial areas of cities. They are equipped with:

loading docks to load and unload trucks, sometimes are loaded directly from railways, airports and seaports.

Storage facilities adapted to the product and its inventory turnover, as shelves, racks ...

WAREHOUSING COMPANIES

Some companies that provide storage services are:

PROCESSES WITHIN THE STORE

1. 2. 3. 4. 5.

Common processes of a warehouse are: Reception. Placement or stock pallet rack. Order picking and preparation. Assignment. Distribution.

Store management within the movement of goods (location, inventory) is performed through some type computer system WMS (Warehouse Management System).

PROCESSES WITHIN THE STORE

An WMS has two basic types of optimization mechanisms:

1)

Optimization of storage space, through sound management of locations.

2)

Optimization of movements or material flows,

whether they made by machines or workers.

THIS PROBLEMATIC OF THE WAREHOUSES

The flow between supply and demand has led to a small decline in traditional stores because of the gradual introduction of production systems based on the JIT (Just In Time).

Which is the elimination or drastic reduction of stored products.

THIS PROBLEMATIC OF THE WAREHOUSES

Despite

this,

the

distance

between

the

manufacturer and the seller has grown considerably in many respects being necessary some

warehouse per country or region in a supply chain for certain product ranges.

SUMMARY

Today, the primary objective of firms introducing a system of warehouses in the supply chain

optimization is the "level of service" offered to the client (profitability).

This is done using techniques derived from engineering and operations research focused on vital aspects such as:

1. 2. 3. 4.

location or stores. Internal and external distribution of warehouse space. Choice of appropriate storage structure.

Effective management and manipulation tours within

the warehouse.

5.

Optimization of cargo space in the different modes of

transport.
6.

Creating efficient transportation routes, reducing travel and maximize the cargo.

7.

Management system design and administration.
