Identified Problems:
Proposed Solutions:
1. Fragmented Communication? Worker Input System
Fluxx Tablets
To improve the fragmented communication, we designed a digital worker input system that allows you to track each individual package, where it's going, and where everyone is assigned, using visual indicators to ensure everyone is on the same page.
2. Unpredictable Workflows? Reorganized Schedule
3. Fluctuating Order Priorities? Automated Delivery System
Fluxx Carts
To accommodate uneven workflow we designed Fluxx Carts: A unique solution to allow workers to send e-commerce orders to the next work station without having to move away from there own task at hand. Fluxx Carts Improve efficiency and reliability in the warehouse, providing a physical product to reduce reliance on technological systems.

PROMPT:
You work in a busy e-commerce warehouse where orders pour in by the hundreds every hour, creating a whirlwind of activity as staff work to keep up with demand. This warehouse operates constantly. Communication is fragmented and asynchronous, creating chaos. The cycle loses efficiency as they struggle to keep up with the orders, as well as struggling to prioritize between expedited, normal, and cancel orders. This environment needs a system to integrate the needs of the whole team without relying on a rigid, linear workflow.
