In light of the time it takes to respond to complaints about shipping mistakes, the company wants to prevent operators from inserting items into the wrong openings.
The company does not want to use separate racks for drink crates and milk crates; they want to use the same racks for both.

Movable racks that prevent inserting errors in all directions
Blue, red, and green LED tape was affixed to the respective openings to prevent operators from inserting items into openings on the wrong row.
Partitions were installed to prevent operators from inserting items into the wrong opening in a given row.
The dimensions of the racks can be changed to accommodate both the drinks crates and the milk crates.
Casters were added to the racks, and the Ethernet junction boxes were replaced with wireless systems. Now, the company is free to move the racks anywhere in the warehouse.
Workflow
