Smart Warehouse Management Solutions
“Smart Warehouse Management Solutions” is an initiative encouraging the adoption of smart inventory and warehouse management solutions. Since warehouse management remains at the heart of supply chain operations with a significant impact on business logistics, it promotes the use of rising technologies such as automation, data and intelligence to transform warehouses from mere large four-walled buildings into interconnected smart storage facilities with multiple technologies working in synergy. The initiative includes technologies such as warehouse management systems, automated guided vehicles, picking systems, drones, and IoT sensors, which are key elements of smart warehouses and will continue to evolve in the future. With these solutions, tasks that used to require multiple workers and several hours can now be done within one hour with only one supervisor. The deployment of these technologies promises more predictive planning, efficient operations, and a faster time to deliver products to end consumers.
