Transform your greatest challenges into opportunities
Surging e-commerce and B2C fulfillment has transformed the 3PL industry. You must adapt to new demands or risk it all.
SKU Proliferation
Customers continue to demand more options, resulting in serious SKU challenges.
Take charge of the invasion
- Use variable height picking processes to increase SKU capacity
- Place slower-moving SKUs above faster-moving ones for efficient access to frequently picked items
- Add case flow lanes to pick lines to accommodate more SKUs
Increased costs
Rising costs and competition are increasing industry pressures
Improve your bottom line
- Deploy robotics to automate tasks and help reduce costs
- Increase speed and accuracy with software-controlled sortation
- Optimize your power source and charging strategy
Space constraints
Escalating SKU counts are forcing the need for more space, a costly capital expense.
Optimize your footprint
- Go vertical, and take advantage of unused cubic space
- Use narrow aisles to achieve greater overall space utilization
- Deploy advanced inventory management systems to increase capacity of existing space
Fulfillment expectations
Same-day delivery is becoming an expectation. To beat the competition and keep costs down, speed and agility are imperative.
Enhance operator productivity, meet demands
- Use advanced technologies and processes to put away and retrieve pallets faster
- Increase picking rates with solutions engineered for high throughput applications
- Use Big Data to help increase efficiency, lower operating costs and to offer value-added services
Last mile logistics
Customers place high value on the speed, security, traceability and cost of delivery.
Exceed expectations
- Deploy walkie pallet trucks with a DSD package for convenient, round-the-clock performance
- Integrate with your customers’ systems to provide accurate orders and visibility of shipments
- Use a distributed inventory model to shorten the final delivery distance
Labor shortage
A smaller labor pool combined with seasonal volume and high turnover has created a labor shortage.
Retain and reduce turnover
- Redirect workers to more value-added tasks by deploying robotic solutions
- Offer advanced ergonomic lift truck solutions to help reduce musculoskeletal problems related to operation
- Help enhance operator confidence and reinforce positive behavior with operator assist systems
