Warehouse Layout Design With The Multi-Deep Lane Storage System A Case Study Of Tbs Company

Abstract

Nowadays, warehousing is the essential requirement for most of the business with specific purposes such as manufacturer, import, export and transfer goods. The operation of the warehouse influences the value-additions and customer satisfaction. Many types of research are evidence of awareness of warehouse layout design, storage systems, and storage policies that can increase the storage efficiency and surface efficiency of the warehouse. This thesis is applied to the case of TBS company's warehouse in Binh Duong, Vietnam, which has a warehouse rental service. As facing with COVID situation and current warehouse layout made a decrease in storage efficiency and surface efficiency of the TBS warehouse, the company is looking for an optimal solution to redesign and eliminate the weaknesses in the current warehouse layout. The Optimization model for the Multi-deep lanes storage system is performed in this study to support the company to find out the optimal layout for the TBS company's warehouse and avoid the problem indicator ascending. This case study is conducted by the optimization model and executed by MATLAB Software, then designing new warehouse layout basing on the Systematic Facility Layout Planning theories with all data from the company. The result has required the optimization of the model for surface efficiency and storage efficiency to the real storage system. Several cases and experiments are proposed to present the improving the weakness of the current layout or the current storage system of the warehouse. As the result, the factors that affect the current warehouse layout, as well as the surface efficiency and storage efficiency was identified and executed
