Paper Summary:
The paper examines the article "Warehouse of the Future: Software will Choreograph Tomorrow's Warehouse Work", where the author discusses how the future of warehouses will involve a highly coordinated, technical and completely efficient system. The paper explains that because technology evolves rapidly and the warehouse must stay competitive, the article stresses that a warehouse design must be flexible enough to accommodate future technologies.From the Paper:
"In describing exactly how this new warehouse will function, Graham talks about a well "choreographed" automated warehouse that will focus on "trimming fat, dumping waste and eliminating redundancy wherever it is found." Admittedly, this will mean that fewer workers will be required but, those who are employed will be "more qualified, better trained, and more motivated." The result will thereafter be the creation of more service orientated jobs in a typically manufacturing/labor intense field."Sample of Sources Used:
