ABSTRACT

With the continuous development of technology in the logistics industry, big companies are gradually pushing forward the construction of modern intelligent supply chain system, and the planning and development of distribution centers is an important part of advancing the construction of modern intelligent supply chain system. Company X has typical business pain points, for example, the existing personnel and storage equipment can not quickly respond to the inbound and outbound business needs since the rapid increase in business volume,and the existing warehouse is not large enough to meet the storage needs due to the increase in backlog. In the face of technological innovation and business pressure, the distribution centers of Company X is therefore carrying out intelligent construction of warehouses to realize the digital transformation of warehousing business. This thesis takes the distribution centers of company X as the research subjects, starting from warehouse management system and warehouse space. Through various methods such as interview research method, literature research method and qualitative/quantitative analysis method, the current problems are analyzed and optimization solutions are proposed. It can effectively enhance the material storage capacity of Company X's distribution centers and increase the turnover rate, thus improving the material supply capacity.
