Abstract

In today’s rapidly growing and
changing business environment, keeping their competitive edge in the market is
becoming harder and harder for organizations. Thus, today’s organizations have
to constantly re-engineer their business practices in order to meet the
increasing competition and at the same time to meet customer expectations. This
requires smoothly operating a process that yields high-quality
products/services in a short response time with a low cost in an organization.
This can be achieved by integrating a well-operating supply chain system into
the businesses conducted. With this scope, being a member of the supply chain,
warehousing and distribution systems play one of the key roles in achieving
competitive advantage. However, in Turkey, warehousing has not been given the
degree of consideration that it deserves. Yet, recently, few companies have
realized the vital of warehousing and studies regarding the subject have begun
accordingly.  One of the companies in
Turkey that have acknowledged the need for innovation in X Textile Firm. It has
undertaken to re-engineer of its core operations. Within this frame, this
research handles one of the branches of the study, Analysis, Assessment and
Improvement of the Warehouse System. With the reviews that the results of the
studies have presented, proposals are formed and existed what should have been
done in order to achieve the objectives that have been stated at the beginning
of the study. Then, after interviewing with top management of the firm on
needs, constraints, and specifications, detailed proposals covering the core
issue are prepared. When warehousing operations are considered as a whole, the
issue inherently requires an elaborate analysis of the supply chain. However,
because of time constraints and the scope designated at the outset, detailed
design proposals are kept and sustained within the initial frame. At the end of
the study, the proposed structure and concept is presented to the management
and this research provides as an initial step and it supports on how the firm
should follow throughout the progress of the research.
