Kitting/WIP
The Kitting/WIP module provides the ability to pick raw materials needed for Manufacturing Work Orders or components for Kit Assembly Orders. Additionally, it allows for receipt of Finished Goods for the Work Order or Assembly Order. Over-picking of parts is allowed, if needed, in order for warehouse workers to move product in an efficient manner. With this module it is possible to know which lot numbers of raw materials were consumed in the manufacture of the finished item which can be helpful for proper compliance track and traceability. Ability to create scrap transactions is also part of this module, as well as the return to stock of unused over-picked raw materials. Finally, an option is provided to scan specific component parts at various routing steps within the manufacturing process and to capture manufacturing time as well as quality control at each step.
Labor Management
The Labor Management module captures information about each worker, work area, and warehouse, and provides reports showing the productivity for the day as a percent of standard. This information enables managers/supervisors to identify low performing individuals and work areas so that their performance can be improved or the standard revised due to some previously unidentified problem. Combining this with other measures, such as accuracy and quality, will help provide a better overall picture of the warehouse performance.
