DC 主播台

在現今競爭的商業環境中，大部份的經理人都致力於如何用人經濟化、產能效率化。 因此倉儲空間有效利用，
進出貨、理貨及存貨控制變成了重要的倉庫管理課題。 他們包括以下各項：

· 利用有限空間及有效率的存貨與出貨系統。
· 符合成本效益的自動物料輸送系統，
· 精確、簡易使用的無紙化庫存管理系統

當計畫一項新系統引進或將原有的進、出存貨系統升級的過程中，如何良好整合每個模組的運作是成功的關鍵。
每項系統無法於被隔離於其他系統獨立運作，以及將各系統環節相互關連的功能一併被整合成為節省時間、金錢成本的完整系統。

本會將會示範如何善用方法來檢視您現有系統運作的優缺點；這會為您帶來增加倉庫空間密度、提高設備利用率；加強撿貨、存貨及庫存管理系統的有效控管。

EDI, WMS, AIDC Technologies - "Streamlining Fulfillment with Automation"

Individually, the pieces of the fulfillment system may not seem to add a great benefit to improving your fulfillment process. However, when looked at as a complete, streamlined system the incremental benefits add up to a more profitable, efficient fulfillment operation. From picking, to packing, to processing, shipping and returning product, the streamlined fulfillment center takes on an automated life of its own. Direct labor costs are drastically reduced. Errors and damaged product are diminished through the reduction in human labor. Down-time due to worker injury or error is eliminated. Cost savings on freight are realized. Throughput soars. Order process to fulfillment time is slashed. Customers are satisfied.

網際網路為需要開發新市場的行業門提供了一條寬闊大道 - 除去了地域上的藩籬與隔閡。達康（DOT.COM) 的網路商店製造了需求的新趨勢、與期望；消費者在他們尚未確定需要前就可在網路接觸商品。為因應好奇心引起的上網採購欲望，只要動動指頭、按按滑鼠就能買東西的採購模式創造了桌上型消費者的新市場。 這是對業務及行銷遠景的一項大好消息 - 但是，對於完成每家每戶甚或每張辦公桌的訂單送的客戶手上並不是一件容易的事。

不像傳統行銷管道：是以地緣關係劃分業務領域。網際網路提供了新客戶的來源 ; 很多您會發現，超出您的地緣關係範圍，
也超出您過去行銷的管道。 另外，為因個人少量訂貨需求；單項產品的撿貨、包裝和出貨流程，遠較於零售店鋪或物流中心之整箱或整板處理更有著顯著的不同。

我們所賴以運作的供應鏈，成本越來越高。如果不好好以加以定位
We are all here because business is moving faster than ever before. The supply chain we all feed and are feed from is pushing costs up the chain. If not correctly positioned with state of the art communication and data handling tools, the future is not looking as bright as it could. Not long ago, it was only the 800 pound gorilla Customer’s like Wal-Mart, Target and Sears that demanded EDI. Now smaller and smaller accounts want UCC128 Barcodes, ASN’s and order in “replace the sale” quantities. The ease of “full truckload” of warehouse pallet quantities has been replaced with the supplier now doing the warehouse and order picking for the customer. Delivering on demand, and reducing the cost of receiving for the customer has become paramount. If you do not supply it their way, your customers loyalty fades quickly when someone else can. This presentation covers an overview of how to get your customer orders positioned to retain their business, get new orders, and make it more profitable for your company and you.
