Packaging & Shipping Optimization

How do you scale packaging and shipping operations by 6X without running out of space?

Beckway recently helped a client facing exactly this challenge. Their current packaging area lacked flow, had unclear capacities, and no standardized processes, putting aggressive growth targets at risk.

Our approach:

✔️ Analyzed historical demand and variability
✔️ Created detailed current-state maps and capacity models
✔️ Developed optimized layout concepts, narrowing down via an impact/difficulty matrix
✔️ Delivered future-state layouts with clear equipment, workstation, and material storage placements

Results? Confirmed capacity for a 6X volume increase—and identified an additional 30% productivity opportunity.
