From Our Editors’ Desktops:
INTRODUCING THE
MONTHLY BRIEFING WEBCASTS
Each month, DC VELOCITY’S editors will bring our readers a new webcast focusing on important supply chain
topics. This new webcast series will reflect many of the same themes that we cover on a regular basis in DC
VELOCITY. Leading experts will also be on hand to discuss the month’s topic.
The Container Store ups productivity
with voice picking
When The Container Store switched from an RF system to
voice-directed picking for its retail and direct-to-consumer
orders, overall productivity at its DC jumped by 10 percent—
and in some areas, by as much as 15 percent. In this live
webcast, Christy Parra, director of logistics systems at The
Container Store, and Jeff Slevin, chief operating officer of
Lucas Systems, will explain how the purveyor of home
organizing products made those impressive gains.
