Automation that works – not just on paper.

Many automation projects fail not because of the technology, but due to selection, integration, and ramp-up. We provide vendor-agnostic guidance from system selection and tendering to stable operations—backed by experience from successfully implemented, fully automated logistics centers.

Areas of Action

Six Pillars of Successful Warehouse Automation

From the software core to robotics – we evaluate what makes economic sense for your volume and processes.

WMS & TMS Implementation

Requirements analysis, system selection, tendering, and implementation of warehouse and transport management systems – including seamless ERP integration – with platforms such as SAP and Microsoft Business Central.

Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs)

Deployment assessment, selection, and rollout of AMRs for transport and order-picking processes – implemented where they deliver real ROI, not just where they look impressive.

High-Bay Warehouses & Material Handling Systems

Planning and project management for high-bay warehouses, conveyor systems, and packaging lines – from layout planning to final acceptance.

Digital Twin

Simulation and live digital twins of your warehouse processes to validate design decisions and ensure transparent operations.

Layout & Process Design

Material flow, zoning, and resource planning as a foundation – automation enhances good processes and cements bad ones.

Ramp-up Management & Stabilization

Go-live support, performance ramp-up, and KPI monitoring until the system consistently delivers its guaranteed performance.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about warehouse automation

At what scale does automation become worthwhile?

This depends less on company size than on volume, growth, workforce availability, and real estate costs. Even individual AMRs or a modern WMS can pay off at medium volumes—while a high-bay warehouse requires a different scale. The business case will show it in black and white.

Are you bound to specific manufacturers?

No. We provide vendor-neutral consultancy, issue vendor-neutral tenders, and negotiate strictly in the client's interest—we do not receive any commissions from providers.

How long does an automation project take?

A WMS implementation typically takes 6–12 months, while a greenfield facility featuring a high-bay warehouse and material handling technology requires 18–36 months from the initial concept phase to stable operations.

What will happen to our workforce?

Automation is transforming roles, but rarely replaces them entirely—especially in the face of skilled labor shortages. Change management and upskilling are integral components of our projects.
