RightChain Slotting

Slotting Optimization System | Slotting as a Service | Slotting API

RightChain has been slotting warehouses for 30+ years. It started in 1990 with Dr. Frazelle's award wining slotting optimization algorithms used to maximize picking productivity, storage density, and picking accuracy in major distribution centers at Avon, Baxter, Honda, LL Bean, and Texas Instruments. Those same algorithms have been enhanced continuously and have moved from PC desktop implementations to the current SLOTTING AS A SERVICE model offered as a CloudAI platform and/or as an API call by WMS or ERP. For pallets, cases, and eaches, the functionality includes storage mode optimization and justification; space and lane allocation optimization; slot location optimization; cost minimization; demand correlation; and re-slot optimization.

Cost Minimization Minimizes labor, space, equipment and error costs.	Storage Mode Optimization Assigns each SKU to its optimal storage mode.	Space Optimization Optimizes pick face sizes, and space/lane allocations.
Location Optimization Optimizes slot and re-slot location assignments.	Solution Optimization Minimizes cost via optimal storage and handling assignments.	Rack Optimization Computes and configures optimal racking designs.
Demand Correlation Locates demand correlated items next to each other.	Reslot Optimization Recommends and ranks optimal re-slotting moves.
