Task Benchmarking
How many picks per hour is a reasonable rate for your order pickers? How many cartons per hour should be de-stuffed from a container? Are 18 replenishments per hour a fair rate for your operation?
Again, the truth of the matter is; that without measurement you will never really know.
Yes, you will know that on average your forklift drivers put away 15 pallets an hour, but is this what they should be achieving?
Hadrian will answer these questions by completing detailed methods measurement studies on each task.
Real numbers
When we look at your operation, we won't measure to some pie-in-the-sky number that no team ever achieves.
The calculated rates are based on trained and experienced operators following a preferred method, complying with all OH&S requirements and working at a safe but conscientious pace. Allowances are included for personal time, fatigue and reasonable delay as well.
By merely implementing these benchmarks, other Hadrian clients have been able to attain productivity improvements in the order of 10 – 15%.
