Warehouse KPIs:
The data of decision make

The expert’s point of view

A shortage of raw materials is impacting the world markets. Production and trade are confronted with the enormous consequences of fragile supply chains. And the pandemic continues to keep the world on tenterhooks. The certainties of past decades have been displaced by a new normality of uncertainty. At the same time, demands for speed and quality are increasing.

In order to ensure their own company's ability to respond to major challenges, decision-makers need a broad view and precise focus at the same time. How have the most important key performance indicators in warehouse logistics changed over the past year? This question is answered by the new study ‘Warehouse KPIs’ by the Herchenbach Supply Chain Institute. Challenges that we, as one of the leading manufacturers of warehouse and logistics solutions in Europe, have encountered time and again in discussions with our customers and suppliers were quantified by the data collection.

The most important key performance indicators for warehouse logistics

A seismographic sensitivity for emerging trends on the one hand, and a detailed analysis of what has already been implemented on the other, are decisive parameters for corporate success in a disruptive environment. The new study by the Herchenbach Supply Chain Institute aims to provide food for thought and recommendations for action.

  • Decision-makers from major industries were surveyed, in particular experts from the transport and logistics sector.
  • The focus of the study was on key performance indicators in warehouse logistics.
  • The KPIs also reveal significant trends in a comparison of Germany, the UK and France and provide decision-making tools for the future.

Detailed analysis as a recommendation for action

In addition to a graphical presentation and a detailed analysis of the figures, each theme includes a classification and conclusion. This means they can be used as benchmarks against your own company’s key figures. The study thus offers valuable recommendations for action.
