    Para melhorar as medidas de controle de qualidade no seu armazém e reduzir erros de envio, você pode: Implementar conferência dupla dos pedidos antes do envio. Adotar sistemas de código de barras ou RFID para rastreamento preciso. Oferecer treinamento contínuo para os funcionários. Usar checklists padronizados nas operações de separação e expedição. Automatizar processos sempre que possível para reduzir erros humanos. Realizar auditorias regulares e análise de erros para identificar causas-raiz. Estabelecer indicadores de desempenho (KPIs) para monitorar a precisão dos envios. Isso ajudará a garantir maior eficiência e qualidade nas operações do armazém.
