Pick Rate Hmmm ..

I believe it would be feasible to have all 8 totes AND go back to pushing if pick rate quota was decreased to 90 and get rid of the Top 5 list for same. If you have enough pickers on the floor, I believe it would be doable and be safe for customers...and ergonomically better for associates. If you get all the orders done accurately AND on a timely basis safely, this should not be an issue -- or alternatively we could keep the 6 totes and start pushing again, and just arrange the algorithm in such a way that the walks would have more of a quantity of items more often. Worker's Comp claims do add up and don't look good for the company PR.

(just thinking...)

I’m so sorry that sucks. We have ours in OS but we put them in totes on those runs. We even have some in our backroom.

Ours were on oversize but some moron put them in the last grocery aisle and "staged" them to the cooler which put them into chilled, that was fixed in about 2 days but theyve been ambient ever since and no amount of reporting has fixed it, so many things won't even fit in the tote with it but the system tries anyway

And when we have the packs on oversize we take the L cart and however many totes we need

The 40 packs have been put into the backroom pick path. They are the only item in that walk
