ASSESSMENT
Camping World built a new facility to provide the level of service required for continued growth with a goal to take on some of the volume from their other distribution operations and to handle forecasted organic and acquisition growth states. Additionally, a parallel goal was to automate the picking, case routing, packing, sorting and shipping operation to better serve their company stores and their e-commerce customers.
SOLUTION
An in-depth material handling system design study was completed to provide a comprehensive design for a material handling system containing a detailed concept, operational description, budget guidance and an implementation schedule. The material handling system included a 24V motorized driven roller system, dynamic zone picking, carton and tote sortation, 3- level pick module, in line weight verification, corrugated waste handling system and a warehouse control system. The system is designed to accommodate future growth in picking, packing and shipping operations.
RESULT
Camping World was able to fulfill internal store and e-commerce orders across Texas and the Southern United States while taking volume from their other distribution centers in order to provide customer service excellence and timely support.
