What is Lean Retail?
The Lean Retail approach centers on a number of Lean techniques:
Simplifying work design
Using pull to drive replenishment
Removing bottlenecks throughout the supply chain
Eliminating wasted:
Effort
Time

Lean Retail
Tools from the Lean Concept translate well into the retail industry
The Lean principles remain the same but the application may change
Focus on the value stream -
Get aligned
Get everyone engaged
Start with the customer
Creativity is the greatest resource
Silos are the greatest obstacle
Why Lean Retail?
Waste is seen differently in Lean: One of the stumbling blocks to Lean
is understanding the concept of waste.
Traditionally waste has been viewed as an object. It is very easy to envision a barrel of scrap and identify it as waste
In Lean thinking the term waste actually refers not to the physical material but rather the relationship of the resource to the end customer
Lean is all about identifying and eliminating waste
In Lean, waste is measured in consumption of resources – time and capital

Lean Retailing Perspectives
It is impossible to provide better customer service
without increasing labor costs
We can’t predict customer demand, so we must be ready for anything
Product availability can only be improved through increased amounts
of inventory on hand
We would need a lot of capital to invest because this program may not
pay back for years
By giving stores more control, I lose network wide consistency and
standardization
Lean retail improves customer service and frontline employee satisfaction without increasing
labor costsOverall demand are highly variable,
many parts of it are predictable
Lean retail will reduce inventory and out-of-stocks
Lean Retail requires very little capital investment and consistently delivers
substantial impact through sales increases and cost reductions
Lean retail increases consistency and standardization while empowering
local management

Principles of Lean Retail Execution
If your customers expect products to be delivered on trend, then eliminate obstacles such as extra handling and improve processes that are inhibited by poor workflow design. Plot the value stream. Identify and map all the steps involved in moving goods through the system, all the way to the customer. Activities that add no value should be eliminated. Make the process flow. Redesign processes that prevent the free flow of products to the customer. Pull from the customer. Lean execution requires a clear understanding of demand and current inventory, pulling merchandise to stores and to the shelf based on what customers want. Pursue perfection. Root out any remaining waste. Then do it again, and again, and again.

Retail Scenario-Warehouse and DC Management (Lean WM)
Scenario This scenario describes the processing of merchandise in the
distribution center with inventory management done at the level of storage location – Lean Warehouse Management.
Benefits Since storage procedures depend on space limitations,
organization and the type of merchandise being stored, this scenario should be seen as one example of an implementation.

No additional level of stock keeping below IM.
Warehouse number and type are just used for the recording of stock movements using the transfer order, but no stock posting is triggered when moving merchandise at this level.

Using Lean WM
When you implement Lean WM, inventory management takes place solely at storage location level. The system does not update the stock data at storage bin level using the quants like the Warehouse-Management-System (WMS) .
You use Lean WM solely for processing goods receipts and goods issues. Using Lean WM, you process the warehouse movements in basically the same way as if using the Warehouse Management System: you work with deliveries, and you create transfer orders for these deliveries. These transfer orders serve as pick lists.
The use of transfer orders in Lean WM provides the following advantages:
• You can reprint transfer orders at any time. • You can split transfer orders and thus distribute the workload better
among the staff in your warehouse. • You can use mass processing functions based on the transfer order (for
example wave picks).

Mass Processing of Deliveries
Manual creation in the outbound delivery monitor using selection by:
Shipping point Picking date Route, carrier ... Free selection
Automatic generation using selection by: Picking date / time Additional filter by several criteria (e.g. route, shipping point, ship-to-party ...)
Considering capacity restrictions: Weight, volume Maximum items on the picking list Working time ...
