Choosing an order picking strategy is one of the most important decisions related to warehouse management. Making this decision properly can lead to high standards of efficiency, since order picking represents more than a half of a wholesale and retail organization's operational costs and consumes a huge amount of the resources allocated to warehouse labor. Moreover, some productivity and service-oriented objectives related to order picking are sometimes conflicting, and require managers' preferences to be considered, thus making the decision problem multi-objective and complex. We put forward a multicriteria decision model based on the ELECTRE III method that supports how to choose an order picking strategy. It takes managers' preferences into consideration and integrates all the core elements for assessing how picking is being performed. Results showed that the model is able to identify the strategy that yields the best compromise between the objectives of productivity and the service-oriented ones, and that this strategy also represents the organization's aims.
