Operational Analysis and Process Design
Before we undertake any project, we take the time to understand your operations, technical requirements, and business needs, and we work with you to identify process improvement possibilities in your facility. From the outset, we strive to develop a partnership with your operations and IT personnel, the people who have the inside knowledge and expertise about your business and operations.

Operations Assessment
Our operations assessment helps identify process improvement possibilities and the potential efficiency and accuracy gains in your facility. The assessment is conducted by our process experts, who will spend time at your facility, walking through your current processes, observing your team, and discussing with you different ways in which a warehouse optimization solution may help you achieve significant process improvements.
Engineering Study
For companies who wish to move forward and develop a detailed functional design for a Lucas warehouse optimization solution tailored to their operations, Lucas will conduct an engineering study.
- A team of Lucas specialists will spend two days onsite to study your operation, observing and talking with your associates, and reviewing your current infrastructure and systems.
- We will document and review the workflow and paper flow of your current applications, and spend time reviewing your IT systems and data flows in order to identify initial system integration requirements.
- Lucas will document your current processes, develop preliminary functional requirements for a Lucas solution, develop a preliminary user process flow, determine the appropriate method of interfacing to existing systems, and develop a preliminary implementation schedule.
Process Optimizations
As part of the engineering study we will explore new processes with your team to determine if there are ways to reengineer your processes to achieve dramatic productivity and accuracy gains in your DC.
