  • ABSTRACT
    With the vast positive trend of e-commerce sales, the efficiency of warehouse
    operations needs to keep pace. Therefore, a part-to-picker warehouse named Robotic
    Mobile Fulfillment System Warehouse (RMFS) was explicitly designed e-commerce
    warehouse. This warehouse system can reduce the number of human operators and use
    robots, or in RMFS, called Automated Guided Vehicles (AGV), to carry the pods.
    There are several ways to increase the efficiency of the warehouse. This research will
    focus on the decision problem, SKU to the Pod, or product assignment policy.
    This research has three scenarios: SKU to Pod using Random—baseline, Mixed
    Class, and Mixed Class Affinity policy. ABC classification and association rule using
    Weighted Support Count is applied to design the second and third scenarios. Then,
    using a simulation approach, those three scenarios are compared to find the best policy
    to increase warehouse efficiency. It is indicated by looking at each policy's number of
    pods transported. The smaller the number of pods, the higher pile-on the SKU to pod
    policy achieves.
    As a result, the last scenario yields the best pile-on with an average number of
    pods transported of 6.59 pods per order. Meanwhile, the first and second scenarios'
    results are 7.06 and 6.90, respectively. From that numbers, it can be concluded that the
    pile-on of the last scenario is 7% and 5% higher than the other two scenarios, even
    though only 8% of SKUs form the association's rule. This result is verified by using
    one-way ANOVA.
