Process optimization in order picking: Smart solutions for sustainable efficiency
Technology, ergonomics and safety enable a new level of productivity in your warehouse.
In most warehouses, picking is an area with great potential for optimization. Save valuable time searching for items, running back and forth between shelves and documenting individual steps with smart processes - and experience how this significantly increases efficiency, safety, added value and, not least, employee satisfaction in your warehouse.
These are the TOP 5 challenges for successful order picking in intralogistics:
- Complexity of the data basis: Only those who know their data and processes precisely can decide which is the best picking strategy.
- Digitization and automation: The smart definition of packing processes, sequences and optimally fitting load carriers is a great challenge - but also a great optimization opportunity for your picking processes. Especially in the context of automation solutions, however, it is important to consider aspects such as precise gripping processes.
- Energy: Maximum availability is a basic requirement for reliable order picking. This requires smart energy management to be convincing even in multi-shift operation.
- Safety: Order picking areas often have a high volume of traffic. Clear processes are needed to ensure that people and vehicles can work together efficiently and without accidents.
- Ergonomics: Order picking is a physically demanding job. Long walking distances and frequent bending and lifting are a strain on employees' health.
Is your order picking process already smartly optimized?
Every company is different, so processes and their optimisation are always individual. We can advise you on a step-by-step intralogistics optimisation process to suit your situation. Raise your intralogistics to the next level!

Smart solutions for the optimization of your order picking
Analysis and strategy optimization in your order picking tasks
Recognizing inefficient processes, identifying optimization potential, and deriving the optimal order picking strategy - these are the first steps on the way to efficient picking. We are happy to support you in this process and implement the optimizations together with you - e.g., separating the picking zones from the rest of the warehouse or relocating fast-moving goods to the floor area.
More efficiency thanks to standardization and automation
Standardization in order picking is an essential key to optimized processes. Whether in determining the load carriers or the packing sequences - clearly defined processes minimize sources of error, increase efficiency, and reduce the workload of employees. The same applies to the use of partially or fully automated solutions for picking and transport.
