Warehouse digitization

Solutions for Distribution Centers

  • Inbound: check-in/slot scheduling, counting, quick quality control, and put-away to designated locations.
  • Storage: location management, FIFO/FEFO compliance, temperature and special goods monitoring.
  • Pick & Pack: wave, batch, or zone picking; packing and labeling.
  • VAS: kitting, labeling, and channel-based sorting (GT/MT/e-commerce).
  • Outbound: order/route-based staging, loading, and documentation.
  • Inventory & Systems: cycle counting, WMS/ASN/EDI integration, and KPI reporting.

Solutions for Cross-dock Hubs

  • Rapid inbound: check-in/slot, unloading, SSCC/LPN scanning, and preliminary QC.
  • Sortation: route/destination/SLA-based sorting with misroute alerts.
  • Consolidation: merge/split shipments and sequence by delivery order.
  • Route-based staging: load optimization (kg/m³), minimizing overnight carryover.
  • Outbound: vehicle loading, manifest/sealing, and ETA updates.
  • Reverse: pallet/packaging returns, returns handling, exception management, and ePOD.
