Automation as a Necessity for Retail Distribution

A recently published MHI report notes that innovative technologies are transforming supply chains worldwide, however the biggest barrier to adoption is lack of clear business case justification. How surprising it is that our industry still struggles to calculate return on investment for warehouse automation and technologies!

In this session, we will review the primary data points you need to calculate return on investment for warehouse automation and robotics. How can automation reduce your labor and operational costs? Which technologies optimize your existing warehouse capacity? How can you start a journey to determine what automation is best for your operation and budget? Ongoing workforce challenges, coupled with heightened customer demands, make automation a necessity for survival in today’s retail environment!
