ABSTRACT

In recent years, orders for home appliances have increased rapidly due to the development of B2C e-commerce platforms. The large size and wearing parts of home appliances make it difficult to automate home appliance warehouses and storage areas. In response to the inefficient picking operations caused by improper order management in household appliance logistics of storage operations, this paper addresses the issue by analyzing customer demand for products and developing a model based on the EIQ-ABC method, thus increasing storage operations' efficiency. Meanwhile, from company A's home appliance storage center and Xiaomi Home Appliance Warehouse, the orders are analyzed to determine item quantity (IQ), material storage space, turnover rate, and double ABC classification. Additionally, we are able to classify the goods and manage the layout of the storage facility. Finally, we review the picking methods and storage areas applicable to various types of goods in logistics warehouses.
