Modeling & Simulation

• Need for expansion: Following recent growth in the industry, many businesses see the warehouse as a cost center. This means expanding their facilities or potentially relocating to larger sites.

• Operational optimization: Operations must continuously evaluate new technology and equipment to optimize and meet growing demand. Ensuring the positive impact of operational changes is key. Today’s fast-paced warehouse industry calls for adaptable solutions to improve throughput and profitability.

• Improve productivity: The interaction of complex warehouse processes can lead to congestion and inefficiencies.

• Lack of flexibility: Today’s fast-paced warehouse industry calls for adaptable solutions. Traditional automation can be costly and tied to existing operational models. This poses challenges for companies seeking to justify new expenses or accommodate business growth.

• Seasonal peaks: Businesses experience sudden spikes – or seasonal peaks – in demand throughout the year. Failure to cope with increased strain on labor, equipment and shipping windows could lead to process issues on the warehouse floor, without sufficient time to address them. 

• Evaluate automation, MHE and robotic solutions: Operations must continuously evaluate new technology and equipment to optimize and meet growing demand. Ensuring the positive impact of operational changes is key.

• Walk through your virtual warehouse to see the layout and performance of your entire operation
• Compare the performance of different scenarios
• Drill down into hour-by-hour operational reports
