CSCMP EDGE 2023 Innovation Theater: Warehouse Orchestration: The Human & The Robot, Working Together in the Next-Generation Warehouse - Generix

Duration: 0:19:37

Release Date: Oct 30, 2023

Automated equipment can certainly lift, sort, store, and move goods around a distribution center to improve efficiency, in fact, it's been doing so for decades. But for every 10 past deployments of automation, there are likely 5 sitting idle and taking up space today. And here we are facing a wave of next-generation automation, robotics and artificial intelligence; it's exciting, with so much promise. But how do we ensure the right use and fit? Perhaps we start by better understanding what the millions of warehouse workers think about the innovations before we deploy. What are the common hopes and concerns of the worker who's asked to work alongside a robot? Understanding the dynamic of system adoption and employee engagement will surely help ensure we make wise investments in both.
