Comprehensive tools to power your warehousing digitization

Revolutionizing Warehousing through Digitization

“The single biggest benefit to warehouse automation is accuracy! Speed is helpful, optimization on resources is welcome, but accuracy in a warehousing business is paramount.” – Jan Bednar, CEO of ShipMonk

  • Are your customers experiencing a delay in receiving their orders due to limited workforce? 
  • Are you experiencing a decline in the order fulfillment capacity?
  • Do you have accurate inventory counts? 
  • Are you still using spreadsheets for inventory management?
  • Do you identify problems in your supply chain with customer satisfaction data?

These are some of the questions freight forwarders are constantly plagued with.

Warehouse automations are gaining a foothold in the ever-changing scenario of logistic businesses and carries an excellent potential for delivering enhanced user experiences.

Automating and optimizing warehouse operations are not a same-size-fits-all process. Every asset management team requires a strategic, custom-designed plan that suits their needs and techniques.  

We are pleased to announce that we are an official business partner of Microlistics.

The biggest challenges in warehousing right now:

Accidental redundancy, messy warehouse layout, bad inventory management, excessive spending on labour and poor damage control, are some of the challenges that can derail your warehouse operations. 

According to a report by McKinsey & Company in 2019, about £300 billion (approximately $385 billion) is spent each year, worldwide, on overall warehousing costs. 

“When operations upgrade their pick & inventory systems from paper-and-pencil to a more integrated form of order processing, they enjoy on average a 25% gain in overall productivity, a 10-20% gain in space use, and 15-30% more efficient use of stock.”
