Wait, so we're not supposed to just throw the goods around the warehouse willy-nilly? There goes my plan for 'aggressive materials handling'.

I bet the warehouse manager wishes they could just beam the goods in and out of the warehouse using their Starfleet transporters. That would make this whole 'materials handling' thing a lot easier.

D) Inventory management? What, are we supposed to just let the goods sit in the warehouse and never move them? I don't think so.

C) Production management? Really? That's way off base. This is clearly about managing the physical movement of goods, not production.

I was going to say A) Physical distribution, but now I'm not so sure. Maybe B) is the better option here.

I think the correct answer is B) Materials handling. Assigning workers to move goods in and out of the warehouse is definitely a materials handling activity.
