How to Manage all the Moving Parts of your Warehouse

We know your job is demanding. Your warehouse is expected to deliver what everybody wants…right now! Managing demands and running an efficient warehouse with the proper technology, systems, and people is critical. When just one area is off, the entire operation suffers. Thankfully, you can rely on Rose Pallet for a continuous supply of pallets to get your products from here to there safely. But, what about the rest of the moving parts?

The Warehousing Education & Research Council (WERC) exists to help logistics professionals like you overcome challenges, constraints, and make it all happen. In four days, the organization kicks off its 42nd Annual Conference in Columbus, Ohio.  The event starts on Sunday, April 28, and runs through Wednesday, May 1, at the Greater Columbus Convention Center. On the agenda are educational seminars, peer-to-peer discussions, facility tours, and networking receptions.

At the expo, logistics professionals will have the chance to explore the industry’s most innovative products, technologies, and equipment including pallet storage systems. Attendees also have the opportunity to hear two keynote speakers address the topic of leadership.  First, author and HR executive Steve Pemberton will outline strategies to recognize hidden talent. Next, Retired Lieutenant General Michael Ferriter will present on leadership lessons from the trenches.

Of the 90+ seminars, we recommend “Moving Freight in the Age of Big Data” presented on Monday from 2-3pm. Learn how data is enabling transportation and logistics companies to uncover hidden patterns which, when properly analyzed and actuated, can help trucking companies operate more efficiently.
