Warehouse Digitalization – For SMBs, more of a journey than a destination

We hear the term "digitalization" in supply chains and every manager knows they need it and it is a good thing, but actual digitalization seems to have many meanings depending on the source. To some, it simply means moving away from paper and outdated spreadsheets to automate many common processes.

To others, it is a path towards new technologies, such as control towers, cloud-based services, machine learning, and artificial intelligence. But, what precisely should it mean for warehouses and distribution centers and how can that transition occur for smaller companies with growing businesses that may not be able to afford the technological investments of other bigger players?

In this webinar, we draw four experts from leading system design and integration companies to share what digitalization means to them and how companies can start (or expand) their journey towards warehouse digitalization. We will look at what simply steps can be taken to create new efficiencies, save labor, and provide secure distribution processes. We also look at what technologies are available for small and medium businesses to start digitalization without breaking the bank.
