Warehouse Management Systems fall short in providing the type of metrics and forecasting needed for optimal warehouse performance. Brian Barry nails it. How do YOU quantify your metrics or your forecasts? Tell me it's not in Excel. 😟

Who should I follow for the most up-to-date Supply Chain and Warehouse Process Optimization news and thought leadership?

Just looking at Blue Yonder 's capabilities. Impressive! They have great labor management tools but I'm curious if anybody knows if they can track labor performance by wave, zone, and/or batch, too.

The CognitOps team wll be in Charlotte, NC next week for the The Millennium Alliance's Digital Supply Chain Transformation Assembly Oct 29-30. At the event, CEO and Founder Alex Ramirez will host an interactive workshop on how Tractor Supply improved their warehouse labor

It’s been a while since I last posted, but I’ve been heads-down in my new role as Principal Software Engineer at CognitOps. We’re building seriously badass AI-powered warehouse optimization tech, and I just had to take a quick lunch break to share the excitement.

Important read on warehouse automation challenges. Optimization is key before full automation. Solutions for labor allocation, real-time tracking, and holistic management can address many of these obstacles efficiently.

AI-powered optimization is reshaping how warehouses operate. At CognitOps, we’re injecting intelligence into existing systems—think of it as a warehouse brain upgrade. Our ALIGN platform uses machine learning for real-time tracking, predictive workflow insights, and smoother

Warehouse Optimization should not be about AI for AI’s sake. It should be about cutting labor dependence, slashing costs, and increasing throughput. The best kind integrate directly with current Warehouse Management Systems, so there’s no need to rip and replace—just plug in the

One of the most exciting applications of AI in warehouse optimization is in labor allocation. Platforms should proactively allocate staff to where they’re needed most, boosting productivity instantly.

It's worth noting that the transition to automation requires a strategic approach. Implementing systems that provide real-time operational insights, optimize labor allocation, and offer holistic management capabilities can serve as an excellent foundation. These tools can help

A really cool actuator that behaves like a tentacle. Cool!

AI and technology can help us reduce manufacturing costs, making food, shelter, and medicine more affordable, ushering in an Age of Abundance. I say The Age of Abundance is our birthright. We stand at the gates. Let's take it! LFG!!!
