A detailed analysis of the material storage and picking process at Hospital Santa Maria is carried out in order to demonstrate best practices as well as main limitations for which solutions are developed. The findings are that the introduction of within-aisle storage, electric foldable picking vehicles and pick-by-voice system in combination with the Japanese concept Kaizen can improve warehouse operations drastically.NSBE - UNLArantes, AmílcarRUNReichart, Christiane2013-08-06T09:24:11Z2010-012010-01-01T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10362/10277enginfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2024-03-11T03:43:57Zoai:run.unl.pt:10362/10277Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-20T03:19:22.137498Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
