Distribution Center Design

Distribution Center Design

Good distribution center design is the hallmark of the well run organization. Without a modern, customized distribution center design, it's virtually impossible to get products out the door. Whether your existing facilities need to be revamped or you're building a new venture from the ground up, Kuecker Logistics Group can help identify the best distribution center design to ensure peak performance, limited downtime, and more.

Modern Distribution Center Design

The best distribution center design makes the most out of the space and resources your organization already has. This way it's possible to minimize costs while still gaining the benefit of streamlined processes. Various existing components may be utilized in a distribution center design project. Still, recognizing that sometimes the latest innovations can make an enormous difference, it's likely that new components will be necessary.

Plan for the Future with Distribution Center Design by Kuecker Logistics Group

A good design enables your company to handle today's business with ease and efficiency. The best design also offers room to grow. Planning a new distribution center or revamping an existing facility is the perfect opportunity to think about how your business might expand in the future. Prepare for that expansion now, and you'll be ready to take on tomorrow's biggest challenges.

An Excellent Return on Investment

Few things offer such advantageous return on investment as a well-equipped distribution center. A facility that's designed well today will more than pay for itself in years of efficient use. Most organizations are better able to meet marketplace challenges thanks to the design of their distribution center.

Warehouse Software



The Warehouse Control System, simply referred to as a WCS, is the bridge for communications between the Warehouse Management System, or the Enterprise Resource Planning, and the automated warehouse material handling devices.

Benefits of the Warehouse Control System
  • Provides an interface to an upper level warehouse management system where it exchanges data required to manage the distribution centers daily operations.
  • Allows operations personnel to maintain the equipment in peak performance through the collection of statistical data on the systems operational performance.
  • Provides real-time directives to material handling equipment controllers and operators that are required to complete the product routing and order fulfillment requirements.
  • Allows cartons to be dynamically assigned to divert locations based on routing/order information received from the Host or configured sortation algorithms.
  • Adds the benefits of accessing a graphical user interface on operational screens that functions to make control and management of the distribution warehouse a simple process.
  • Allocates tasks to the various material handling subsystems as a means of balancing system activities in order to complete the required workload.
