1.0 INTRODUCTION Over the year, warehouse technology has evolved from using manual equipment to automated equipment for storing and picking inventory. In every warehouse facility the goal is to improve efficiency in both storage and retrieval of goods. goods. With today's innovative technology this goal could be achieved easily. Each warehouse has its own particular needs depending on the type of goods received and stored. [11] With today's technology, warehouses utilize a variety of state-of-the-art equipment that allows for the efficient storage and retrieval of goods. [5,8] This paper will discuss different types of equipment that have enabled the warehouse to become more efficient by identifying the most significant processes in a warehouse.2.0 WAREHOUSE PROCESS2.1 RECEIVING PROCESSThe receiving process is the first step in a warehouse process. This may seem boring if the concept is still perceived as an employee standing with a clipboard and manually counting every piece of material that comes through the door. Today's technology is used in the process of receiving, storing and shipping goods by scanning the barcode of each pallet of goods as it enters the warehouse. [1,8] Another method used in the receiving process is a system known as radio frequency identification (RFID). [1,6] With this method, gifts from the receptionist upon arrival of the goods are not necessary. This process allows the entire contents of the pallet to be scanned as it passes through the door via the RFID chip attached to the pallet.2.2 ORGANIZATIONThe second step is organizing the goods for storage. Make sure all items are sorted to their specific needs for tasks such as repackaging or transferring to pallets, containers.

[8]Companies should start by evaluating their processes and procedures to ensure they can accomplish the following. [7,8,11]• Don't forget incoming products Focus on storage and increasing replenishment accuracy• Improve picking accuracy and reduce labor costs by implementing Pick-by-light or pick-by- voice• Large quantity picking processes should strongly consider Package sorting helps reduce labor costs On-time and complete shipments.• Companies tasked with implementing new automated systems should consider the following: [7 ,9] Consider hiring experts to manage the complexities of integrating multiple forms of technology Take control of your warehouse systems through the use of a single warehouse system Use proven best-in-class practices
