When expanding the East Coast-based main supply chain distribution
facility for its line of casual and dress shoes, Clarks hired a Diamond
Head Principal to assist with validating the proposed new high-volume
facility - automation systems, equipment and procedures - before
committing to construction. We provided a detailed simulation model
that allowed Clarks to experiment with several alternative approaches
to how it would staff and run the facility, thus avoiding costly
experiments with an operating facility.
