In Quebec, in the current economic context, it is becoming difficult for an employer to recruit and even retain competent employees. Not only is the hiring process is getting more complex and longer, but clients' demands in terms of quality and service are increasing. To stand out, why not enhance the structure and efficiency of your warehouse, workstations or workshop? This will improve your productivity and help you overcome labour challenges. To help you, we offer proven solutions.

A More Fluid Parts Warehouse With Drawers In Shelves

One of the elements that hamper the smooth running of many mechanical workshops, municipal garages or production plants is the excessively large parts warehouse, which mobilizes many employees. They must constantly prepare orders and replenish inventory by restocking the compartments. To do so, they have to cover a greater distance, which becomes a drag on productivity. By strategically positioning shelves with drawers, you can store more in less space and reduce warehouse size and movement. By extension, fewer employees will be needed to do an even more efficient job.

Tire Storage: Avoid Unnecessary Trips

Storing tires is becoming more and more critical, especially during peak periods. Customers don't wish to wait for their new tires, but storing too many tires is tricky. Handling summer and winter tires is also a recurring problem, and space for storage is becoming scarce. Many mechanical workshops and car dealerships therefore use external warehouses. However, these additional trips require more employees, sometimes even a worker entirely dedicated to tires. The solution? A tire carousel that allows you to keep a larger inventory in a very small space near the tire installation site.

VLM: For Ultimate Efficiency

In companies where the quantity and types of parts are considerable, storage requirements are increasing. Moving through endless aisles of shelving and rummaging through boxes looking for tiny parts can affect the diligence and performance of the workforce. A Vertical Lift Module (VLM) is a sophisticated system that collects all material in one place. It eliminates recurring and unnecessary trips by putting the required part directly into the hands of the employee. The result? Less waiting to get the item, saving time and money. What's more, the selected part is automatically deducted from inventory, eliminating another step.
