Order Analysis and Planning System (OAPS)

New Software Improves Ability To Optimize Order Flow & Workload Balancing

The Order Analysis and Planning System (OAPS) is a rate-based workflow analysis tool that provides for the optimized processing of orders and workload balancing among various resources in a distribution center or warehousing environment. OAPS optimizes the picking, packing, and shipping workloads adhering to constraints imposed by the various resources and workflows.

The dependencies between resources (manual or automated) and schedules are evaluated to generate balanced workloads based on user configurable resources, rates and deadlines (pick, pack, assemble, sort, convey, etc.). Various configurable rules are available to create appropriate priorities to consider during the optimization process. The options are provided to achieve optimum resource utilization, order throughput, or both. In addition a “What If” mode is provided to allow repeated analysis while changing operational variables.

OAPS outputs a comprehensive set of inquiries/reports for workload summarization and the orders are sequenced to accomplish best utilization of resources and/or throughput, while adhering to the constraints driven by the order mix, available resources, and labor rates.

OAPS can be used as a standalone planning tool or as an adjunct planning tool to a Host Legacy or WMS/WCS system.

Testimonials

I’ve used RCMH as a source for my warehouse racking and supply needs for at least 10 years now. They always provide quality products and extremely fast order fulfillment. I normally will call my own orders from their site in Rancho Cordova. I have never had a negative experience. They offer competitive pricing, quality products and service.

It was great working with Randy and the team at Ross Clark MH. We really appreciate their flexibility in working with our installation schedule. The crew was in and out quickly helping us stay productive. The pallet rack system greatly improves the warehouse efficiency.

I always contact Ross Clark for all our warehouse racking projects on the west coast U.S. They are true professionals, ensuring the project goes smoothly from beginning to end.

Stephanie Alto

Randy and his crews were extremely professional and friendly. They all worked with us to ensure the utmost satisfaction with the install. Randy went above and beyond, remaining positive and helpful even with all the adjustments we made throughout the install. Highly recommend and will be using them again in the future.
