Storeroom Inventory Management Best Practices
When square footage is limited, many storerooms don’t consider vertical storage as part of the equation. However, this space can be an extremely valuable asset when a facility wants to use their floor space for more than just storage. ASRS vertical storage systems are a great solution for best practices in MRO storeroom management for a more efficient workflow in a smaller footprint for all types of facilities in Seattle, Spokane, Tacoma, Everett, Yakima, Renton, Olympia, and throughout the state of Washington.

MRO Automated Vertical Storage
Instead of shelving, vertical storage systems combine a high density design with an automated operation that eliminates the need for employees to walk across the warehouse in search of items. When it comes time to pick for an order, the operator simply pushes a button to have the designated part delivered at a waist-high ergonomic counter.
With a high weight capacity per tray (around 300-400 lbs), the vertical storage systems can store anything from small to large parts. Storing bulky and heavy items within the machines also prevents employees from needing to bend, reach, lift, and otherwise risk injury when retrieving these items.
Technological advancements like inventory management software have also proved invaluable, especially when combined with vertical storage. Inventory management systems allow you to easily track and manage your MRO storeroom. Since the software updates in real time, it’s a more efficient way to keep items trackable and visible at all times.
