Case Study: Owens & Minor improves fulfillment efficiency with PeakLogix multi-level picking system

Owens & Minor - Customer Case Study

Owens & Minor faced a fulfillment challenge caused by an expansive, labor-intensive facility layout and storage structure that led to excessive manual handling, long travel times for staff, late deliveries, and order accuracy issues. PeakLogix was brought in to help improve the efficiency and reliability of the distribution operation.

PeakLogix designed and installed a custom 3-level picking system with automated conveyor, pick divert technology, and label sorting capabilities to direct orders to the right teammates by location and department. The solution reduced travel, improved picking accuracy, and increased efficiency, resulting in better customer satisfaction, improved employee morale and turnover, enhanced safety, and lower operational expenses.
