Wayne Snyder is VP of Industry Retail Strategy EMEA at world leading supply chain platform Blue Yonder :
“ AI makes automation a much more realistic prospect within warehouse management . Warehouse material handling processes tend to be focused on flexibility , scalability and process adaptability ; AI can drive these to the next level , increasing productivity with improving the level of user adoption . AI is also pushing warehouse inventory management to the next level , with AI tools making it possible to understand the relationships between internal data sets to enable businesses to forecast dynamically , continually and automatically by learning the true drivers of demand .
“ The warehouse of the future must be continual and dynamic , and understand real-time issues to respond accordingly . What happens if deliveries are late ? What happens if the yard is full of deliveries waiting for unloading ? AI allows you to use real-time analytics to understand priorities and schedule activities accordingly in the most effective manner to meet business objectives . This can make warehouses more efficient than ever before , enabling businesses to make decisions based on item , location and day .”
