Waveless Order Fulfillment is a methodology used in distribution centers for fulfilling orders, or order picking. Waveless picking is a form of "batch picking" where items for multiple orders are collected, or picked, together at the same time to be divided into separate orders at a later time in the process. The collection of items is called a "batch." Historically, the terms wave picking and batch picking have been synonymous as wave picking is a means of achieving batch picking.

  • Waveless Order Fulfillment is a methodology used in distribution centers for fulfilling orders, or order picking. Waveless picking is a form of "batch picking" where items for multiple orders are collected, or picked, together at the same time to be divided into separate orders at a later time in the process. The collection of items is called a "batch." Historically, the terms wave picking and batch picking have been synonymous as wave picking is a means of achieving batch picking. Batch picking, both wave and waveless, reduces the travel or motion associated with fulfilling orders in a distribution center. Motion is “non-productive” and one of the 7 wastes identified in lean processing. Batch picking provides great advantages when individual orders are of just a few units and where items are located over great areas as would be found in modern eCommerce operations. In such circumstances, the required work, effort and time is reduced by having a travel path where pickers collect items from the required locations in a "batch". However, the efficiency gained by picking the batch is reduced by the effort to separate the gathered items into orders. This profile is common in direct-to-consumer e-commerce operations. Some operations may use an automated storage and retrieval system that allows material to be delivered to complete orders; however, these operations also often benefit from batching items for multiple orders.
