Many modern warehousing, manufacturing and distribution facilities usually focus on energy cost, equipment procurement cost and maintenance cost when calculating the total operation budget in recent years, while easily ignoring the core proportion and potential value of operator related cost in the whole cost structure. According to the general operation statistics of domestic and foreign material handling scenarios, operator cost including post salary, skill training, safety protection, rest arrangement and hidden loss caused by improper operation accounts for more than 40% of the annual total operation cost of most facilities, which is a non-negligible core optimization direction.

The value of operator cost is not reflected in blindly cutting related budget, but in realizing higher unit output through reasonable resource allocation. A well-trained, low-fatigue and high-satisfaction operator team can effectively reduce cargo damage rate, shorten single handling cycle, lower safety accident risk, and bring continuous stable return for the whole facility. Many traditional material handling equipment with complex operation logic need 2 to 3 times longer training cycle for new operators, and it is easier to cause operation error under long-time high-intensity working condition, which will virtually increase the extra cost input of the facility.

As Jianshu New Energy, we focus on BYD electric forklifts, and we are committed to helping facilities optimize operator cost input from the equipment end. Our matched electric forklift products adopt humanized interactive operation design, which greatly reduces the learning threshold for new operators, effectively lowers the physical fatigue of operators during long shifts, and helps customers release greater value of operator cost with lower comprehensive investment.
