The Most Expensive Pallet Positions in the Building Are on Level Five

Raising racking one level buys about 15% more slots — until the fire inspector red-tags the new level.

But operations had added half a level of product to the top bay in the final two months. The clearance went over the limit, and acceptance stalled for three weeks — pulling product down, redesigning the scheme, resubmitting for approval. What it cost would have bought half a forklift.
