Optimizing Warehouse Management in Supply Chain: Trends, Technologies, and Best Practices

Abstract The global supply chain ecosystem is experiencing a fundamental transformation because of rising consumer demands alongside labor unpredictability and climate emergency pressures. Warehouse management has moved from the periphery of logistics to become a central element in this transformation. Warehouses started implementing hyperautomation in 2023 which combines robotics with artificial intelligence and IoT to attain unmatched operational flexibility. Human-robot operations are being transformed by collaborative robots (cobots) and autonomous mobile robots (AMRs), which achieve a 30-40% reduction in errors and 25% throughput increase in high-volume facilities (Hernández et al. 2022). 2022; Nguyen et al. 2023). AI-based Warehouse Management Systems that utilize predictive analytics improve inventory turnover which results in a 22% reduction in overstock costs according to Gupta & Patel 2021.
Sustainability has emerged as a non-negotiable priority. Warehouse carbon footprints have decreased by 40% due to the implementation of solar-powered AMRs together with energy-efficient HVAC systems and blockchain-enabled circular supply chains (Rodriguez & Kumar 2020; Lee et al. 2023). 2023). Digital twins simulate warehouse layouts to achieve 18% faster order fulfillment by minimizing both energy consumption and worker fatigue (Zhang et al. 2021). 2021). This article merges recent technological progress with practical best practices including dynamic slotting algorithms and cross-docking strategies to provide stakeholders with a strategic plan for 2023 and future years.
