Digital Transformation in Warehouse Design using AI and Deep Learning
In traditional warehouse customer acquisition, requests for proposal or request for quotation is a process involving several professional personal and incur days to deliver a final proposal/quotation to the customer. It starts with site investigations and data collection, which takes up to a week usually. Follow by data analytics involving several experienced analysts. The most tedious and time-consuming among all is, design a perfect storage layout with maximum capacity utilized, at the same time ideal to the operations of the warehouse. It could take up to two weeks for an experienced designer to come out with a warehouse design tailored to customer needs. The warehouse performance team will then together evaluate warehouse design, resource, cost, and quotation as a final stage before presenting to the customer. Delivering a proposal/quotation to the customer does not mark the end of customer acquisition, it doesn’t guarantee customer satisfaction that leads to signing the contract. Back and forth to fine-tune warehouse design, as well as other tasks, involve to derive the quotation/proposal, are inevitable. Time has wasted, efforts of designers and others involved are uncountable. Most importantly, is the customer satisfied and sign the contract? Under a bidding proposal/quotation, time is money and elevate the chances to win the acquisition.
We are the expert
We had seen the need to transform this entire process, a game-changer in warehouse customer acquisition.
We have successfully steered into digital transformation through our comprehensive knowledge and extensive experience in the area of warehouse logistics and transportation.
Warehouse Design Automation
Warehouse Design Automation – a digital twin virtually replicates entities that support the warehouse design process, with a digital blueprint of computer-aided design (CAD) and 3D rendition. AI techniques are embedded into WDA to generate the design of a warehouse in just a few mouse clicks. Follow by a 3D rendition of the warehouse design to enhance virtual representations. Warehouse design is generated within a few minutes using WDA by entering the dimension of the package and choose storage type. WDA is upskilled with annotation, enabling users to add obstacles or guard an area for specific usage. Annotation is targeting a customer who needs VAS or Warehouse Postponement Strategy within the leased warehouse space. WDA annotation will block the area and design storage according to the available space. Contact us for a demo.
Warehouse Resource Planning
Warehouse Resource Planning Warehouse Resource Planning is as vital as Supply Chain Planning but neglected due to complexity. It implies the forecast of resource planning as well as optimizing processes and activities in a warehouse facility. We have foreseen the demand for resource planning and we are deep-diving into the development of data-driven resource planning. Our unique remedy to generate productivity of each activity in different warehouse operations have successfully made us different from competitors. We factor in warehouse operation costs, especially MHE.
Warehouse Planning Toolkit
Warehouse Planning Toolkit has digitalized every single step taken to achieve warehouse customer acquisition, aka warehouse planning digital twin. Comparing to traditional warehouse customer acquisition that takes up to weeks to derive a quotation/proposal, the digital process in Warehouse Planning Toolkit is reducing the time to couple hours. Using augmented analytics and in-depth knowledge in the warehouse industry and collaboration between our technologists and customers, we developed insights into data-driven strategy- predicting and amplifying the value of business data by integrating decision algorithms to empower proactive decision-making.
AI Warehouse Simulator is used to diagnose and analyze warehouse processes in a virtual setting. Storage, docks, MHE, direct labor, and moving path are introduced and adjusted in the simulator. Observe how a virtual warehouse running through its regular operations, then compare it with the AI data-driven performance analytics report. Simulation modeling plays an essential role in our transformation as it’s feeding semantic data to performance monitoring.
