Future Of Warehousing In

The reason’s of this presentation are …..

• World Bank's 2007 Global Logistics Report ranks India 39 amongst 150
countries in terms of logistics performance during the year as well as its
future potential.
• the Indian logistics industry is expected to grow annually at the rate of 15 to
20 per cent, reaching revenues of approximately US$ 385 billion by 2015.
• Warehousing activities account for about 20 per cent of the total Indian
logistics industry and tends to grow up to 30-35 per cent.
• Over the next five years, approximately 110 logistics parks and 45 million
square feet of warehousing space is expected to be developed across the
country by various logistics companies.
• Gurgaon, Vizag, Nagpur and Indore are the emerging hubs and
Jamshedpur, Alwar, Ahmedabad, Bangalore and Ambala are the promising
hubs to which we have to serve up till now.
Lets talk of present of warehousing….

PRODUCT LIFE CYCLE

THEORY……
• Like human beings, products
also have their own life-cycle.
From birth to death. It passes
through various stages e.g.
birth, growth, maturity, decline
and death.
• For Warehouse, PEB is the
most preferred product
• Is it a good thing?
Lets talk of present of warehousing….

• increase in competitors entering

the market
• Customer awareness increases
• sales volume increases
significantly
• Industrial profits go down
These are the sign of Maturity stage
• Brand differentiation and feature
diversification is emphasized to
maintain or increase market
share
• So what all options we have?
1. Rack supported warehouse…..

Features of rack supported warehouse...
Advantages to client
• Maximum space utilization
• Lighter foundation
• Less civil work
• Cost per space utilization is
less
• Flexibility in loading and
unloading
• More organized warehouse
Advantages to us
• Structure is lighter and sturdy for
wind /seismic zone
• Steel quantity in warehouses
increases
• Lighter rafter sections as roof load is
supported by racks
• Lighter purling due to less column
spacing
• All advantage of PEB
Companies that provides rack supported
warehouses….
• Giraffe storage (Dewas techno product Pvt Ltd)
• City storage system ( Mumbai)
• Secon system ( Tamil Nadu)
• Sigma storage System (UP)
And many more……
But we have few advantages over them……
• Wider market reach
• Our expertise in PEB
• Capability to providing complete storage solution
2.High Rise Racking……..
Features of High rise racking..

• High rise racking is comprised of a complete storage rack system, with

the rack system being the basic structural support for the building’s roof
and walls. In this scenario, the roof and walls are often referred to as the
“skin.”

• High rise racks could be as high as 100 feets.

• An Automated Storage & Retrieval System is an integral part of High rise

racking, also referred to as AS/RS or ASRS, is a combination of
equipment and controls that handles, stores, and retrieves materials with
precision, accuracy and speed.

Comparative points……

A structural steel frame building is preferable when:

--Business requires changes in building configuration periodically
--There may be a need to remove the storage later in time and still use
the building
--Storage is interspersed with other processes such as manufacturing
--Building height is not over 45’
A rack-supported building is preferable when:
--Storage density is to be optimized (storage/cu. ft.)
--Space utilization is optimized and footprint minimized (storage/sq. ft.)
--Land is at a premium
--Site has high winds or seismic considerations (forces will be spread
across multiple frames)
--Building height is over 100’
AS/RS system- Heart of High rise racking….

• It is a combination of equipment
and controls that handles, stores,
and retrieves materials with
precision, accuracy and speed.
• A basic AS/RS system is
comprised of one or more aisles,
each having a storage and
retrieval machine (SRM) to
retrieve and store product in the
racks on either side of the aisle.
The use of a robotic crane allows
racks to be built several stories
high over almost any length,
providing more storage density
than almost any other storage
solution
AS/RS system- Heart of High rise racking….

• Automated Storage & Retrieval

Systems vary in sophistication from
relatively simple, manually-controlled
order-picking machines operating in
small storage structures to fully-
automated, computer-controlled
systems that are integrated into
complex manufacturing and
distribution processes. AS/RS is
effective for staging in a lean
inventory environment.
• Common types of SRMs are mini
load and unit load. An SRM moves
loads on three axes: vertically and/or
horizontally in the aisle and then
laterally to place the load in a
storage location.
AS/RS system- Heart of High rise racking….

AS/RS can do all the operations

which are unloading goods from
carrier, sorting, put-away, storage,
order-picking, staging and loading
of goods can be done by machine
automatically
Benefits of AS/RS
• Improved throughput
• Inventory accuracy and control
• Erection in tendon is possible
• Reduced operator fatigue
• Employee safety
• Highest possible storage density
• No interference with building
columns
