A Warehouse performance measurement using Edward H. Frazelle's Warehouse Key Performance Indicator
Analyzing Frazelle's WKPI: A Real-Life Example
Keywords:
Warehouse, Logistics, WKPI, FrazelleAbstract
This research aims to break down the Method of Edward H. Frazelle’s (2002) Warehouse Key Performance Indicators (WKPI). This work will explain how quantitative and qualitative data are collected, organized, and analyzed to perform this WKPI with a real-life example.
The case study introduces a quantitative measuring tool used to analyze the efficiency and effectiveness of the warehouse by comparing past and current performance.
Analytic Hierarchy Process AHP (Saaty (1993)) is introduced for the weightage of all activities to assign their different importance and is used to normalize the collected data. This model can specify the problem area of the warehouse.
Keywords: Warehouse, Key Performance Indicators, Analytic hierarchy process, data normalization.
