How are ways that you manage your flow tms?
Do you use RWT to give goal times for specific areas and hold the team to that? I find that we can usually push the entire truck in the allotted payroll, so long as the unload goes well (and if I'm not back there the entire time, I shouldn't expect the unload to be done close to an hour. We average 2200-2400 pc trucks and on good days we can unload in 1:15. If I'm not back there driving the team, it has been close to 1:50-2:00 before the unload is done (even when two days before, we did a smaller truck in less time!)
I'm just hoping to find better ways to get my poor performers to shape up or ship out. At our store, the minimum they are getting paid for flow is waaaaay more than I made when I first started working 12 years ago and I feel like I worked harder than some of these guys when I was 15.
