Why More Robots Don’t Always Fix Warehouse Performance
Description
What if the real bottleneck in warehouse performance isn’t the tech, but the people, decisions, and systems needed to make it work together? Keith Moore says it plainly: software is easy, people are hard.
In this special Resilient Supply Chain roundtable, I’m joined by Mor Peretz, CEO of CaPow, Keith Moore, CEO of AutoScheduler, and Gonzalo Benedit, CRO of Aera Technology, to unpack what warehouse orchestration really means and why it matters now. For leaders focused on supply chain resilience, sustainability, risk, data, and visibility, this is a timely conversation about moving beyond isolated optimisation and getting the whole operation to work in sync.
You’ll hear how even well-equipped sites can still lose serious performance because the pieces don’t fit together properly, and why downtime can represent 10% at a really good site to 30 or 40% of the time just wasted. We break down why more automation is not always the answer, why companies so often become data rich but insight poor, and how orchestration can help teams act faster, not just see more.
You might be surprised to learn how often the real failure point is change management, not technology. We also get into energy as infrastructure, the cost of siloed decisions, and why the future is shifting from visibility to velocity. If you care about resilient operations, better decisions, and smarter growth, there’s a lot in here for you.
