SKU Profiling

Managing the Ducks Unlimited division. Overseeing the product, receiving it into the system, assigning it a location. Completing orders that have missing or outage items. Returning returned items to the system and stock. Working with the receiving, packing, inventory departments.

In an effort to minimize employee theft I installed security cabinets to store our high dollar products.

I put in place a system that minimizes lost product coming receiving into the Ducks Unlimited portion of the warehouse.

In an effort to maximize flow I have moved the heavier items closer to the pack stations. I also put items locations by set so that filling is done in an more efficient manner.

Working with returns I’ve instituted a program that allows maximum time by using Excel spreadsheets and scanning versus a handwritten process.
