Data-Driven Layouts for Optimal Performance

Taking your fleet size, unit type and your business goals into account, we are able to create a true simulation of your specific warehouse.聽A CAD drawing聽gives the simulation an understanding of your warehouse鈥檚 optimal layout.

Then, with the simulation knowing the details of your fleet, it creates a moving visual of what your warehouse looks like on a day-to-day basis. In addition, the simulator also shows changes that could be made to increase warehouse productivity. The final product will inform you of the type and quantity of equipment needed, along with the warehouse layout that will lead to聽your unique facility鈥檚聽maximum productivity.

Warehouse Design Frequently Asked Questions

Here are the answers to what we hear most from operations managers and facility teams across the western U.S.

Warehouse design is the broader process of planning your facility’s layout, including where racking goes, how traffic flows, what equipment you need and how many workers you’ll require.聽

Warehouse simulation takes that design a step further by running it as a working model. Instead of just showing you a static floor plan, a simulation creates a moving picture of how your warehouse operates day to day. You can see where bottlenecks form, where efficiency is being lost and what changes would improve throughput, all before anything is built or moved.

Yes, warehouse design can help you avoid moving to a bigger facility if your current space has untapped storage capacity or layout inefficiencies. Many warehouses that feel out of space still have opportunities to improve vertical storage, aisle configuration, racking layout, equipment usage or product flow.

AV集中营 Company uses warehouse design simulation to evaluate your current facility and identify ways to get more productivity from the space you already have. In many cases, a better warehouse layout can help you store and move more product without signing a new lease.

To get started with warehouse design simulation, our team needs a few essential things:

  • Your warehouse layout in DWG or PDF format

  • Your fleet size and equipment types

  • Product information聽

  • Flow data

  • Your end goals for the project

If you don’t have all of this ready, that’s fine. Part of our on-site assessment is helping you pull together the right information so the simulation reflects your actual operation as accurately as possible.

Yes, AV集中营 Company handles both new warehouse construction and retrofit projects for existing spaces. Our simulation process adapts to your situation. We build the simulation around your unique space and equipment, whether you are planning a new facility, expanding your current footprint or reworking an existing warehouse layout.

Whether you’re designing a brand-new facility or reworking an existing warehouse, our simulation process adapts to your situation. We build the simulation around your space and equipment.

Yes, warehouse design simulation can include automation planning. Our simulation process accounts for automated equipment alongside traditional material-handling tools, giving you a complete picture of your warehouse, whether you’re using forklifts, automation or a mix of both.
