Infor SCM (Supply Chain Management) > Warehouse Management > Work and Task Management

Organizing available work and tasks to optimize productivity.

Better control of workloads and tasks is essential for high-volume fulfillment and distribution centers that seek to align the efforts of individuals and teams with rapidly changing work priorities.

Work and Task Management manages the ebb and flow of demand by balancing workloads and tasks with available resources. Multitasking enables you to increase productivity through the use of common workflows, customer requirements, and business processes. Radio frequency (RF) and voice technology make it easy to direct workers to the correct task and location—a further aid to productivity.

Work and Task Management helps companies like yours:

• Improve worker and workforce productivity
• Improve order fill rates
• Increase employee retention and morale
• Accelerate throughput and velocity

Work and Task Management allows you to group work orders and locations with similar or complementary attributes into batches and waves so that orders are received, picked, packed, kitted, and shipped in timely fashion. Individual worker productivity is improved by combining complementary tasks to increase output and limit travel time. Team productivity is improved by grouping orders and locations into pick zones so that multiple operators can work across orders. RF-directed put-away, pick wave management, dynamic pick zone creation, and task interleaving help you further accelerate throughput and velocity.
