What is a WMS System?
A WMS helps your team be more efficient, by making it easier to know where incoming items should be stored, and where to find stock that's due to leave.
Read MoreFast, efficient and robust warehouse systems that don’t require weeks of design work or continuous adjustment. That’s what we deliver with DIDO, our ground-breaking warehouse intelligence platform.
By harnessing the power of artificial intelligence, your business data is combined with intelligent automation, resulting in the design of your ideal warehouse. It’s not just the ideal solution for today, it’s also designed to stay optimised into the future.
Our clients are already enjoying the benefit of this revolution in the warehouse design process.
DIDO captures operational data to inform precise, strategically aligned warehouse designs
DIDO rapidly evaluates thousands of layout options, optimising for efficiency and accessibility
DIDO creates 3D models, allowing interactive, immersive design validation before implementation
The power of DIDO is its capacity to process and analyse huge volumes of data, fast. It’s a suite of software applications that operate in collaboration to find the best possible warehouse designs. It’s an innovative answer to the problem of decision-making in a complex logistics environment.
DIDO does not remove human decision-making from the final warehouse design. It automates the process of problem-solving by taking every variable into account, and exploring every possibility, at a speed and in a volume impossible for human designers. The final, optimised, designs are reviewed and revised by a team with extensive experience and skill in warehouse intelligence and design.
ELSA – Everything Lives Somewhere Appropriate – uses machine learning to categorise every stock-keeping unit (SKU) based on picking and storage needs.
ELSA’s categorisation ensures the best layout by aligning SKU storage with delivery and picking patterns. This provides the data relied upon by subsequent design stages.
CLARA – Creates Layouts Algorithmically and Rearranges Accordingly – autonomously generates warehouse designs, incorporating the insights provided by ELSA.
CLARA’s layout designs streamline warehouse flow, using algorithms to balance efficiency and space utilisation, and helping ensure an ideal layout before implementation.
ELISA – Ensures Layout Is Strategically Aligned – simulates and scores each warehouse design based on operational data.
ELISA validates each layout, ensuring it meets operational and strategic benchmarks and continuously informs the best-fit design choice.
SEC XR is SEC’s Extended Reality Engine, that incorporates 3D design renders, Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality capability, for a fully immersive warehouse design experience.
We developed SEC XR to support our award-winning DIDO platform – Data In, Design Out – which harnesses cutting-edge technologies such as artificial intelligence, machine learning, and virtual reality to revolutionise the warehouse design process.
Integrating SEC XR into the DIDO platform, allows users to visualise the design solution and enhance the decision making process around infrastructure to make them safer and more efficient.
Organisations of all sizes are now using AI-enabled design to improve productivity across their supply chain. Many are enjoying huge benefits as they discover how AI makes a positive difference to their customer service and their bottom line.
