Pick Rate Calculator
Enter a manual unit count and effective labor hours to calculate units per labor hour.
A QUICK WALKTHROUGH
How to use this tool
- Count one consistent handling unit manually, such as order lines, cases, totes, or items.
- Enter effective labor hours for the same work period and the same counted work.
- Review the local units-per-hour result; it is a ratio, not a worker score.
Formula and reference
Pick rate = manually counted chosen unit ÷ effective labor hours. Terminology follows the ASCM Supply Chain Dictionary: https://www.ascm.org/learning-development/supply-chain-dictionary/ .
Scope
