• Learn about warehousing and materials handling in a humanitarian context (from a strategic, operational and disaster relief perspective)
• Compare with framework and course cases to contrastdifferences and understand underlying reasons.
• Gain an insight to the UN and what it means being deployedto an onset disaster.

First task: map all roads
• Provided with driver, vehicle, note book and a GPS
• Mapped all roads, road blocks, characteristics, required transportationmeans, possibility to offloadtrucks to boats/barges
• Gathered data to be plottedon map to get an overview of area for coordinationpurposes

31
Framework
• We will compare each setting with one of the course cases (ICA) and identify differences and underlying reasons why warehousing and materials handling is set up and managed in a certain way
• What factors should we base our analysis on?
• You have 3 minutes..

Framework• Analysis will include:
1. SKUs (number and characteristics)
2. Flow of goods (frequency and size of orders)
3. Unit load (pallets), carton or piece picking
4. Stacking (racks or floor)
5. Automation and equipment versus manual labour
6. Timing of activites (receiving, put-away, restocking, picking, shipping done at the same time?)
7. Labour management
8. WMS

United Nations Humanitarian Response Depot (UNHRD)
• This global network will facilitate WFP’s capacity to meet its goal of responding to 3 concurrent large-scale emergencies and the implementation of a 4th one.
• Reach / support any emergency operation within 24 – 48 hours
• Strategic location, Close to infrastructure (including port and airport facility)
• Somewhat politicaly stable location required
• Question: Propose locations of 5 warehouses within this network (bearing in mind the above conditions)

Services provided by UNHRD
• Example of Customers: UNICEF, Save the children, Red Cross, European Commission, MSB
• Activities: Offloading, reception, inspection, small repairs, customs process, warehousing, routine maintenance, stock management and administration
• SKUs: Blankets, Tents, Generators, Mobile hospitals, Mosquito nets, ICT equipment, Warehouse pre-fabs, Water treatment, Vehicles, Warehouse equipment, High Energy Biscuits (HEB)

High Energy Biscuits
HEB High energy biscuits are used especially for emergency supply; they may be used in therapeutic feeding programs as well as an immediate response at the outset of the emergency when no other foods/cooking facilities are available (e.g. when a population is in transit or fleeing).

• Consider our developed framework, think about similarities and difference to the ICA warehouse:
1. SKUs (number and characteristics)
2. Flow of goods (frequency and size of orders)
3. Unit load (pallets), carton or piece picking
4. Stacking (racks or floor)
5. Automation and equipment versus manual labour
6. Timing of activites (receiving, put-away, restocking, picking, shipping done at the same time?)

Mombasa Operation
• 600,000 tons of food (cereals, pulses, oil, salt) handled through Mombasa in 2009
• 20 warehouses• 60 + staff• Main port / transport route for Kenya, Uganda, north-east
Congo, south Sudan, Somalia
• Think about what you would expect to find inside one of these warehouses? And let us have a peak

Value adding activities in Mombasa W/H
• Matching demand with supply• Consolidating the food basket (ships often come with only
one commodity): maize, pulses, oil
• Fumigation
• Reconditioning
• Strategic stock (stickers)• Transshipment for Somalia (receive big ships, send off
smaller ones..) and coordinating shipments with NATO

Labor management: parameters to consider
• Union rules (constraints on scheduling)• Shifts (number of shifts, lengths, start times, end times)• Contracts: Fixed vs Temps (rent-a-labor)• Management & organization (organigram, team leaders,
structuring of labor)

Some steps to consider (iterative process)
61
1. Form a team
2. Assess needs• how much throughput of food and non-food-items
• Where to transport (destinations)
3. Estimate need for warehousing, order from UNHRD
4. Call forward food (locally or internationally)
5. Assess what means of transportation is required by WFP and other agencies
6. Contract trucks, barges and helicopters and get people on board (including GIS expert)

Focus: Warehousing
• Location, location, location…• Consider three aspects (or you
might find yourself in a bigmess):1. Leverage from water level
(given the specific context of the emergency operation)
2. Assessibility for trucks3. Security (to avoid thefts)

Some factors to consider
• A mixture of SKUs to handle in an inter-agency warehouse
• Humidity and infestation are major risks for stock. (encourageFIFO and fresh air during day)
• Not possible to fumigate• Food should never be stored
with ”NFIs”• Only manual labour available,
very limited access to equipment• Identify availability of gangs and
team leaders

• Consider our developed framework, think about similarities and difference to your case and the ICA warehouse:
1. SKUs (number and characteristics)
2. Flow of goods (frequency and size of orders)
3. Unit load (pallets), carton or piece picking
4. Stacking (racks or floor)
5. Automation and equipment versus manual labour
