Description
The US Army is seeking to modernize its sustainment practices and capabilities through the acquisition of commercial sustainment and manufacturing technologies and services. The Letterkenny Army Depot (LEAD) Commercial Solutions Opening aims to leverage advancements in convergent manufacturing technologies to accelerate the Army's capabilities. The project involves the development of a Warehouse Management System, with a focus on optimizing the rack design within the existing footprint. The system should be able to handle a minimum of 2,000 lbs while maintaining current storage capacity.
Key aspects of the project include:
• Optimizing the Unit Load item profile to understand the number of distinct line items and average and peak number of pallets on hand per item
• Maintaining current storage capacity in volumetric storage
• Increasing Unit Load capacity to a minimum of 2,000 lbs
• Improving throughput capacity to 150 transactions per hour
• Minimizing conveyance to gain loading and staging area and reduce congestion
• Implementing a goods-to-person system
