Featured Session
From Dock Door to Dynamic Slotting: How AI and WES Are Transforming Receiving and Put-Away
Wednesday, June 24 | 3:15 – 3:45 PM
Presented by Dan Hanrahan, CEO, and Pat Hanrahan, VP of Business Development
Receiving and put-away are two of the most labor-intensive, error-prone, and overlooked operations in the distribution center. They also create downstream impacts across inventory accuracy, picking efficiency, replenishment, order fulfillment, and dock-to-stock cycle time.
In this session, Numina Group will show how its RDS™ WES-WCS platform applies AI to improve the full warehouse ecosystem — beginning at the receiving dock. The presentation will cover how AI-OCR can digitize supplier packing sheets, match receipts against ERP purchase orders and EDI data, create real-time ASNs at the dock, and direct product to the right storage location based on velocity, cube, seasonality, and SKU affinity.
Attendees will see how AI-powered receiving and intelligent put-away can help:
- Reduce manual data entry and blind receipts
- Improve receiving accuracy and dock-to-stock speed
- Direct products to better storage locations
- Continuously optimize SKU slotting based on real order activity
- Improve downstream picking productivity and fulfillment efficiency
The session will also explain what becomes possible when WES and WCS capabilities operate as one unified system — connecting receiving, put-away, order release, picking, automation control, and shipping into a smarter, more adaptive distribution operation.
