Abstract: Provided is a rack management system, including a processor and a storage unit. The storage unit stores information indicating positions of sections included in an area in which storage racks that store articles can be arranged. One of the storage racks can be arranged in each of the sections. At least one of the sections is surrounded by other adjacent sections without an aisle to convey the storage racks therebetween. The processor classifies the sections into sections assigned ranks indicating a degree of efficiency of an operation to convey the storage racks placed therein to a predetermined working area, and one or more empty sections into which, if there is a need to move one or more other storage racks in order to convey a storage rack placed in a given section, the other storage racks that were moved are placed, and outputs results of the classification.
