Smart warehousing solution to improve efficiency, performance and employee health & safety amidst the Covid-19 pandemic

Sonodot公司正在开发一种先进的智能仓储解决方案，以帮助解决当今仓库和物流行业面临的主要挑战。仓库目前设备不足，无法处理大量订单和交付，供应链波动和不确定性，在Covid-19大流行期间增加了时间、人力资源和成本压力。该项目建立在Sonodot现有的室内跟踪技术的基础上，该技术于2019年启动，用于持续监控物料搬运车辆（例如叉车）在仓库中的移动情况。高性能位置智能平台将这些数据报告给仓库管理人员，使他们能够在安全、人力和车队利用方面做出更好的决策。新的功能和工具将迅速开发，并与现有的Sonodot平台集成，为项目结束时的大规模试点安装做好准备。预计从2021年开始，独立解决方案将全面推向市场，在性能和效率方面为仓储和物流行业做出重大贡献，同时确保员工健康和安全，并为这种全球中断的短期、中期和长期影响做好准备。额外的资金将用于与客户定制的仓库管理系统集成，并在大型仓库进行beta测试。这项工作将产生一个与WMS无关的接口层，这将促进未来的集成，并减少采用摩擦，因为客户可以从Sonodot现有工具的实时优化功能中受益。这项工作也将作为未来与制造执行系统（MES）集成的基础，这将开辟新的市场机会。

Sonodot Ltd are developing an advanced Smart Warehousing solution to help address key challenges facing today's warehouses and logistics industry. Warehouses are currently ill-equipped to handle high volumes of orders and deliveries, supply chain fluctuations and uncertainties, with added time, human resource and cost pressures during the Covid-19 pandemic.The project builds on Sonodot's existing indoor tracking technology which was launched in 2019 to continually monitor the movements of material handling vehicles (e.g. forklift trucks) wherever they are in a warehouse. The high-performance location intelligence platform reports this data to warehouse managers, allowing them to make better decisions around safety, human labour and fleet utilisation.New functionality and tools will be rapidly developed and integrated with the existing Sonodot platform, ready for large-scale pilot installations at the end of the project. Full market launch of standalone solution is anticipated beginning 2021 making a significant contribution to the warehousing and logistics industry in terms of performance and efficiency, whilst ensuring employee health & safety and preparing for short-, mid- and long-term impacts of this global disruption.Additional funding will allow for the integration with client's bespoke Warehouse Management System and beta-testing in a large-scale warehouse. This work will result in a WMS agnostic interface layer that will facilitate future integration and reduce adoption friction as customers can benefit from Sonodot's real-time optimisation features from their existing tools. This work will also serve as foundation for future integration with Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES) which will open up new market opportunities.
