Which methods are mentioned to reduce travel time during the order picking process?

• A. Delivering directly from supplier to customer.

• B. Using only one main aisle for movement.

• C. Avoiding order batching to save time.

• D. Reducing travel distance by batching orders and choosing efficient routes.

What role does ABC analysis play in product storage?

• A. Classifying products by color.

• B. Storing items alphabetically by product name.

• C. Categorizing products based on importance and frequency to optimize storage locations.

• D. Creating a daily stock tracking chart.

Why is shortening the picking path considered important in order picking route design?

• A. To increase the number of items picked daily.

• B. To reduce travel time and improve picking efficiency.

• C. To ensure even worker distribution in the warehouse.

• D. To prevent fatigue from walking the same aisles repeatedly.

What are the main objectives of the general order picking problem?

• A. Expanding warehouse space to store more items.

• B. Designing the narrowest aisles possible to save space.

• C. Reducing the number of workers needed in the warehouse.

• D. Optimizing picker routes to minimize travel time and cost.

How is the S-Shape Heuristic described and how does it help in order picking?

• A. The picker moves in an S-shaped pattern through each aisle, ensuring no items are missed.

• B. The picker returns to the starting point after picking each item.

• C. The picker only enters aisles with an even number of items.

• D. Only applies to warehouses with a circular layout.

Where does the order picking route start in the Largest Gap Heuristic?

• A. At the middle of the warehouse

• B. At the depot, moving to the front of the closest main aisle containing an item

• C. At the last cross aisle

• D. From a random aisle that contains the first item

How does the heuristic decide whether to go left or right at a cross aisle?

• A. It always turns right first

• B. It follows alphabetical order of item names

• C. It chooses the side with the shortest travel distance

• D. It alternates sides randomly

What happens if a block contains no items?

• A. The block is skipped completely

• B. The heuristic returns to the depot

• C. The closest aisle in that block is traversed entirely

• D. Only the center of the block is visited

What strategies does the Combined Heuristic include?

• A. Backtracking and FIFO

• B. Randomized and Greedy routing

• C. S-shape and Largest Gap heuristics

• D. Sorting by item weight and volume

When does the Combined Heuristic use the S-shape strategy?

• A. Always, regardless of item position

• B. When both aisles on each side of a block contain items

• C. Only in the first block of the route

• D. When the number of items is even
