The model also enables to evaluate possible despatch operation system elements such as the dock utilization and labours scheduling problems, moreover it allows estimating the costs incurred when the new storage does not have sufficient space for all FG. From this followed whether the push back rack storage fits the healthcare manufacturing business case and how it contributes to business despatch operation improvement.
