Abstract

This paper deals with the combined implementation of the optimal redistribution of warehouse stations through layout analysis, as well as the use of lean techniques in warehouse operations of an air cargo company. The study highlights the effort to improve operations within the warehouse through the use of existing lean tools that allow eliminating waste (activities, materials, among others) that do not generate operational value, as well as improving and expanding the warehouse's storage capacity using the plant distribution tools and block stacking in order to maximize the allowed load and maintain the proper order that allows the continuous flow of operations within the air cargo warehouse.
