Planning Automatic Logistics Centers and Distribution Centers

A logistic center is the mainstay of a supply chain based organization. It connects between purchasing, production and import and the end client and manages intake of products, storage and distribution of the organization's products.

Because of its vital importance to the entire organization, it is crucial to plan the logistic center professionally in accordance with the unique requirements of each organization.

Professional planning of the logistic center, takes into account all relevant parameters including geographical location, transport accessibility, regulations and municipality constraints, worker accessibility, energy sources and safety etc, and calculates these factors into a plan that will enable the logistics center to serve the organization's specific needs in the most efficient manner possible.

Consultation and planning of warehouses and distribution centers, must address a number of logistics issues:

What is the optimal location of the warehouse

What are the optimal storage and operations methods?

Is it worthwhile integrating advanced technology into the operational system?

What method of distribution is used for end clients?

 What kind of pallets or surfaces are to be used?

What are the dimensions of the packaging to be collected and distributed?

Rosenstock-Shippur Engineering and Logistics examines all alternatives for the logistics center and warehouse and finally proposes a clear recommendation for technology and optimal operations.

This includes a detailed scaled plan of the system and all its contents, on the AutoCAD program. 

It contains:

 Principles of the operational methods

 The manpower required for operations 

 Description of work stations

 Technical specifications for conventional storage systems

 Automatic storage systems and transportation and handling

 Defining peripheral movement at the site etc.

 Plans for office areas

As operations planners, we define the functional building requirements by means of a construction guide- manual that provides characterization specifications for building the structure. We can thereby guarantee that the quality of the structure suits your needs for the period of time for which it is planned.

Construction characterization specs- document defines infrastructure matters such as:

 Dimensions and height of the structure 

 Quality of the floor finish

 Dimensions of all openings

 The dimensions and height of the ramps

 Height , positioning and strength of lighting systems

 Requirements for sprinkler system etc.

This is only a small section of the details that concern us in order to ensure your operational structure's success.

Choosing your conveying and handling equipment

The choice of your equipment for handling materials and products to be used for operations is an integral part of the planning process and it has a significant impact on the efficiency of the operations system.
