The principle of warehousing management 2021-06-20 11:23:31 (1) The principle of efficiency Efficiency refers to the ratio of a certain output of crystals to a certain input of labor elements. Only small labor factor input and high product output can achieve high efficiency. High efficiency is the basic requirement of modern production. The goal of warehousing operation is to realize the 'fast forward, fast out, more storage, good storage, and cost saving' of warehousing operations. 'Fast forward' means that when the goods arrive at the port, station or dedicated warehouse line, the cargo receiving, inspection and warehouse operations must be completed as quickly as possible. 'Quick-out' refers to the timely, rapid and efficient completion of materials, rechecking, outbound and delivery cleanup operations when materials are out of the warehouse. 'Multi-storage' is based on reasonable inventory planning, maximizing the use of effective storage area and space, and increasing the storage volume and area utilization per unit area. 'Keep well' refers to the reasonable arrangement of storage sites in accordance with the nature of the goods and the requirements of storage conditions, the use of multiple business methods and scientific storage methods, so that the quality and quantity are intact and accurate during the storage period. 'Saving cost' means that in the entire process of importing and exporting goods, as well as the entire process of storage, we must strive to save manpower, material and financial resources, and obtain the best economic results with the lowest storage cost. (2) The principle of economic benefit The purpose of production and operation of manufacturers is to maximize profits. This is the basic assumption of economics and a reflection of social reality. Profit is the performance of economic benefits, that is: profit u003d operating income-operating cost-tax. To maximize profit, it is necessary to maximize operating income and minimize operating costs. The management of socialist enterprises also does not rule out the motive of seeking profit maximization. As one of the main participants in market economic activities, the storage industry should also organize and operate around the purpose of obtaining maximum economic benefits. However, it is also necessary to assume part of the social responsibility, fulfill social obligations such as protecting the environment, maintaining social stability, and meeting the growing needs of the society, so as to realize the social benefits of production and operation. (3) The principle of service The warehousing activity itself is to provide service products to the society. Service is a main line running through the warehousing. The positioning of warehousing, the specific operation of warehousing, and the control of stored goods are all carried out around the service. Warehousing management is the management of how to improve service, improve service, and improve service quality around service positioning, including direct service management and service-oriented production management. The service level of warehousing is closely related to the operating cost of warehousing. Generally, the service is good, the cost is high, and the charges are high. Warehousing service management is to maintain a balance between reducing costs and improving (maintaining) service levels.
