Warehouse automation has become essential for businesses as a “must have” to stay competitive, maximize efficiency and respond to dynamic customer service trends. Yet, while the benefits of warehouse technology can be enormous, defining and successfully implementing warehouse automation projects is a complex process.
One of the biggest challenges a company faces in this process is navigating the rapidly evolving field of new warehouse technologies. Companies have more choices than ever, ranging from autonomous mobile robots (AMRs), goods-to-person (G2P), storage and order picking systems, robot storage, and more.
It takes specialized expertise in warehouse technology to accurately evaluate, compare, and identify the right options for a particular business – specialized expertise that typically lies outside most companies’ ongoing employment plans.
For this reason, one of the most critical decisions a business should make before investing in an automated warehouse system is choosing the right systems integration partner to serve as an extension of your staff and ensure a successful project.
Systems integrators that adopt a data-first and software-centric approach to warehouse automation design play an important role in addressing the most pressing business challenges in warehousing and logistics.
A systems integrator provides in-depth expertise in reviewing and selecting warehouse automation solutions, ensuring seamless implementation and optimal results.

Companies can draw on the integrator’s experience and knowledge to handle a range of project tasks, from planning through implementation, including:
Systems integrators vary significantly in their expertise and in-house design services, software, and controls capabilities. Many system integrators outsource much of the critical services, and/or build their practice around specific material handling manufacturers.
The best way to ensure that you’ll achieve the desired ROI on your warehouse automation project is to work with an independent systems integrator who is vendor neutral and has in-depth experience working with all the leading material handling providers. This will ensure that your solution will be based on the best technology that is a true fit for your specific operations.
