Automated Warehouse Benefits

For companies that can afford it, and operate in sectors compatible with automated logistics, full automation delivers a great many benefits, including:

~ Significant labor cost reduction
~ Superior levels of productivity
~ A high degree of efficiency
~ Minimal risk of processing errors
~ Improved inventory management
~ Increased supply chain speed

While full automation is still relatively rare, even traditional man-to-goods warehouse operations have been impacted by new technologies, though people may still shoulder the greatest part of the workload. Indeed, few businesses remain untouched by the disruptive influence of information technology.

While automation removes the need for manpower, many companies still consider it either too expensive to implement, or are concerned about the length of time to ROI, which is typically around five years. On the other hand, many software solutions offer a much faster return on investment and are affordable even for smaller businesses.

Sophisticated analytics help operators find and eliminate process weaknesses; Inventory management software helps companies to optimize stock levels, while modeling tools do the same in construction design and warehouse layout planning.

When considering the impact of technology on warehouses and distribution centers, it would be remiss to overlook disruptive technology in the wider commercial environment. So before moving on to visit the warehouse of the future, let’s briefly reflect on how warehouse operations have been indirectly impacted by technological advances.

As consumers have progressed from shopping online to mobile shopping, they have driven a revolution in retail commerce, which has in turn set off a ripple effect to initiate similar changes in business-to-business trading.

Today it’s all about the omnichannel experienceβ€”and that has changed the entire supply chain profile in many industries and commercial sectors. All this transformation has led to a distinct shift in warehouse function, from being a staging point for supply chain inventory, to becoming a vital element of the value chain.
