Our Approach to Successfully Delivering Automation

Numina Group designs and implements Tier I automated warehouse systems managed by our RDS™ WES-WCS
warehouse execution and control software
platform. But our expertise does not stop at technology.

Numina follows a proven approach to ensure your warehouse automation project succeeds. Here is how we get there.

Site Evaluation

The best way to ensure project success is to begin with an audit of your existing operations. Our warehouse engineers work with you to perform a site assessment with SKU movement data velocity and order throughput analysis to benchmark your company’s current and five-year projected growth.

The resulting warehouse engineering study is a detailed summary of your current warehouse processes, identifies opportunities for improvement, and pinpoints cost savings across the entire operation.

Process Improvements

Our industrial engineers work with you to review processes and identify wasted touches and movements in your operations.

Armed with the right data and on-site assessment of your facility, we partner with your team to outline and define process improvements, create a warehouse layout drawing, and determine the most effective warehouse automation design for your operations.

Technology Review

Once our teams are aligned on the improved warehouse flow, we review warehouse automation technologies to improve storage and accelerate process improvements while generating the highest ROI yield.

With the Numina Group as your independent systems integrator, you benefit from working with a partner that can evaluate and choose the best-of-breed technologies to achieve the optimal solution for your operation.

Design Study

Numina Group also offers expert design planning services to support your in-house team in creating a plan that draws on the latest modern warehouse design principles and technologies.

Our warehouse design plans are backed by a written performance and acceptance test specification document that guarantees the system will meet or exceed the performance requirements.

Integration and Turnkey Implementation

We provide complete integration and implementation services, including configuration, installation, testing and go-live, and ongoing support. You can rely on us to ensure your project’s success from design to go-live, with guaranteed performance managed and controlled by RDS WES-WCS.

After implementation, our team is available for you with ongoing critical software and system support 24 hours, seven days a week.
