and / or storage facility is the most important factor while Fumiand Schiraldi(2013) ,
Hanna and Maltz (1998) and Housman et al (1976) claim that choosing the best
model for warehousing depends on the kind of inventory being used and the number
of skus involved.
As far as the traditional warehousing systems, Housman et al (1976) attack the
mentioned systems and claim using them to be primitive and holds a negative effect
on warehousing, while the rest suffice by comparing the later to more advanced
systems or simply non mentioning them at all.
Methodology
Based on the research question “what is the impact of shuttle warehousing on water
industries in Lebanon? I have used data prepared by the logistics department of Rim
Natural Spring Water in 2018 and performed an anova test.

Results
Taking the anova test as a test to prove my null hypothesis, and to tell whether the means of
this test are significantly different.
Since our p-value is less than or equal to the significance level, in this case less than where
0.047 is less than 0.05 hence we can reject the null hypothesis and conclude that not all of
population means are equal.
And we hereby deduce that the differences between some of the means are statistically
significant and hence we can say that we have 95% confidence level
So we compare the p-value to our significance level to assess the null hypothesis. The null
hypothesis states that the population means are all equal. Usually, a significance level α of 0.05
works well.
So in the case of shuttle vs. typical warehousing we can say that This ANOVA exercise tests
whether the average satisfaction mean of the warehouse modules are equal. That is, whether
