A Class-based storage is applied to a unit load warehouse that uses single command cycles This results in the average travel distance to perform a single command cycle to each of the storage classes as:

For A items (25 best squares) = 45.2 feet/cycle

For B Items 35 next best squares) = 87.1 feet/cycle

For C items (60 worst squares) = 102 feet/cycle

Assume 8-hour work shift per day. where employees given a half hour break An average of 1000 pallet loads is received daily and 1000 pallet loads are shipped daily. 75% of operations A items. 20% are for B items, and 5% for C items. If one person can travel 101 feet per minute and the extraction (e.g Pickup or drop off) time is 19 seconds, how many FTE (full-time equivalent) operators are needed to meet the average throughput requirements.
