Summary of Innovation
Lucas Dynamic Slotting revolutionizes the traditional time consuming, and resource intensive warehouse slotting recommendation process by making it as easy as one click of the mouse. Using AI, machine learning, combined with a real time “always on” data approach, Lucas Dynamic Slotting gives warehouse operators the freedom to generate slotting moves on an everyday basis if desired. Lucas eliminates the traditional time-consuming engineering, manual complex modeling, and high cost required to do warehouse re-slotting.
System-generated recommendations identify product moves that offer the biggest potential payback. Lucas Dynamic Slotting also utilizes machine learning to adapt to the DC and evolve as conditions change, providing continuous optimization. Benefits include greater throughput, higher pick densities resulting in higher pick rates, and less travel and stress on warehouse workers.
Innovation Statement
Lucas provides a game changing way to re-slot the warehouse that results in large improvements in operational efficiency without the pain of traditional reslotting projects. No other technology provider offers this capability. Traditional slotting approaches are painful to execute and done infrequently today because of their complexity. The exclusive process of Lucas Dynamic Slotting utilizes AI and machine learning to make slotting smart, simple, and dynamic so warehouse operators get the benefits of re-slotting as often as they want.
Applicability
Slotting recommendations can be generated directly by warehouse operators and in most cases, AI-based slotting can deliver 10-20% labor cost savings, a 1-5% improvement in accuracy and 20-40% increase in throughput.
