Abstract:

The Covid-19 pandemic has changed people's shopping habits, causing them to turn to online shopping sites, especially on the internet. In the face of increasing order rates, it has become inevitable for manufacturers and suppliers to produce innovative solutions for collecting orders and delivering them on time. Companies/suppliers who had to use a limited number of manpower due to the pandemic have tried to solve this problem with the use of machinery. In this study, a new low-cost Order Picking and Distribution System application developed for the stages of order picking and distribution in the supply chain is described. This stage of the supply chain is the most problematic, time-consuming and costly. In general, more human resources are used in the proposed solutions. With this application, it is aimed to create a more efficient system in terms of time, manpower, warehouse space and cost. For this purpose, a prototype Order Picking and Distribution System application was designed, manufactured and implemented in real time.
