Scalable warehouse automation for retail distribution

The explosion of omnichannel shopping has transformed the retail supply chain and led to the need for advanced fulfillment capabilities that seamlessly integrate traditional and online shopping channels.

The Numina Group has helped many retailers adapt their current distribution facilities and/or design new operations into efficient omnichannel fulfillment that supports traditional direct-to-store (DSD), direct-to-consumer, retail clients, and Amazon direct-to-customer shipment demand.

Our warehouse automation solutions are proven to improve speed and efficiency in mid-sized and large operations, the two most essential qualities of any supply chain operation.

Fast, Touchless Order Processing for B2B and B2C Channels

The foundation of Numina’s retail order fulfillment solutions is our RDS™ Warehouse Execution and Control Software (WES-WCS) platform. RDS offers a family of automation modules that can be configured for fast, accurate, touchless order processing.

RDS WES-WCS modules can be combined in the way that makes the most sense for your operations and expanded as volume increases and/or new sales channels are added.

Value-Added Features to Reduce Labor and Increase Order Accuracy

The RDS WES-WCS platform offers numerous ways to optimize and streamline picking, packing, and shipping, such as:

  • Order release planning with intelligence automation (IA) software that goes far beyond traditional wave, batch, or continuous order release methods.
  • Optimized picking plans for full case, split case, pallet, small parcel, and individual orders?
  • Cartonization software is used to ensure the right size of carton selection and reduce shipping costs.
  • Multiple picking solutions to reduce labor and increase productivity, including voice-guided picking, speed picking, AMR picking, kitting, pick-to-light and put-to-light systems, goods-to-person (G2P) solutions, autonomous fork trucks, and more.
  • Real-time tracking at the item, order, and shipment level.
  • Touchless print-and-apply labeling for compliance, retail, and shipping labels.
  • Omni-channel fulfillment workflows for automated e-commerce order shipping.

These examples illustrate a few of the many ways RDS WES-WCS can be configured to streamline and accelerate the order fulfillment workflow.
