Our Warehouse Design Services

ӣƵ is a full-service warehouse solutions provider that can perform a custom warehouse layout simulation for your business. We’re the material handling division of ӣƵ, a premier provider of warehouse equipment and services since 1944. Trust us to deliver targeted design services that will increase productivity and efficiency while reducing operating costs.

We utilize state-of-the-art warehouse simulation software that enables you to assess your needs and optimize outcomes in these and other crucial areas:

  • ܾ賾Գ:Determine the quantity and type of forklifts and other material handling equipment your warehousing operation will require to meet the demand.
  • Floor space: With a completed warehouse simulation, we can show you the warehouse layout necessary to increase your company’s productivity.
  • ٲڴھԲ:You’ll know precisely how many workers you’ll need to meet your productivity goals while avoiding the often prohibitive costs of overstaffing.
  • Operating expenses: By identifying ways to increase efficiency, our warehouse planning software can eliminate costs that reduce profitability.
  • Gate requirements: You’ll be able to determine how many and which types of gates you’ll need for loading departing trucks and unloading arriving trucks.
  • Traffic flows: Use the design software to find the most efficient freight patterns in your facility to ensure optimal picking and transporting strategies.
  • Performance metrics: Identify and implement the appropriate measuring tools to gauge operational performance, such as utilization rates, inventory levels and execution time.

Taking your fleet size, unit type and your business goals into account, we are able to create a true simulation of your specific warehouse. A CAD drawing gives the simulation an understanding of your warehouse’s optimal layout.

Then, with the simulation knowing the details of your fleet, it creates a moving visual of what your warehouse looks like on a day-to-day basis. In addition, the simulator also shows changes that could be made to increase warehouse productivity. The final product will inform you of the type and quantity of equipment needed, along with the warehouse layout that will lead to your unique facility’s maximum productivity.

The Process of Warehouse Design Simulation

We view our warehouse design services as a collaborative venture. We’ll work closely with you throughout the process to ensure we have all the information required to deliver an optimal solution. Our team will encourage your input and will incorporate it during every phase.

The specific process steps include:

  1. Obtain warehouse layout (In either DWG or PDF format), fleet size and type, product information and flow, and the end goal(s) from the customer
  2. Build the warehouse simulation based on the shared information provided by the customer
  3. Provide the customer with data generated from the warehouse simulator

Once you’ve received and reviewed your custom warehouse design layout, we’ll meet with you to discuss the results. You can suggest changes or improvements, and we’ll be happy to incorporate them into the design. You can move forward knowing that your simulation will accurately replicate your real-world warehouse environment.
