Warehouse management: codification of lean school

Abstract

This study aims to propose a coding system for the boxes and storage positions of the Lean School of the University of Valladolid. The approach used was the Case Study with direct observations and documentary analysis of the environments and based on the theoretical foundation, solutions were suggested such as the implementation of individualized barcodes and visual standardization through colors in one of the positions. Although the system has not yet been physically implemented, all the coding logic has already been defined. The proposals aim to improve control, location and operational efficiency in the environment by aligning with the principles of Lean philosophy and offering a practical application of industry.
