May 2022 - Aug 2022
- Developed a new process for dealing with inventory totes with liquid damage spills in the Automatic Storage Racking System (ASRS) for Walmart’s Next-Gen Fulfillment Centers (FC). - Analyzed the key process steps including removing, cleaning, and re-inducting totes from the ASRS. Analysis included time studies and observing the current process in action. - Collaborated with experts from engineering, operations, finance, outside vendors to understand the problem and evaluate 7 possible solutions. Collected and analyzed data from Pilot Site (0.02M totes) to estimate number of dirty totes per day at full scale (1.8M totes). - Implemented automated industrial tote washing machine to eliminate need for third party manual tote cleaning services resulting in $350k annual savings with 2.3 year payback period. - Identified tote removal improvements by addressing immediate tote removal after a spill. Improved operator efficiency, tote lifting ergonomics, and decreased number of associates for removing dirty totes. - Increased operator productivity by reducing possible dirty tote locations from 96 to 3. - Project recommendations were approved and will be implemented at the Indianapolis fulfillment center.
