Software Configurable Put Wall Popular at ProMat
Omnichannel and e-commerce trends like SKU proliferation, flash sales and seasonal changes challenge fulfillment operations to efficiently adapt to changing order profiles. At ProMat 2017 in Chicago, Intelligrated Software showcased its software configurable put wall, integrated with xD and xL light fulfillment technologies in a booth demonstration that shows the solution’s easy reconfigurability.
The patent-pending put wall features dividers that can be easily reconfigured to align slot sizes based upon seasonal product changes and/or changing order profiles, enabling operations to make the most of available physical space by increasing location density. As slot size is adjusted, the integrated xD and xL light devices change accordingly, using pre-programmed or user-defined software templates, an ideal solution that provides flexibility for space-constrained operations.
“Today’s fulfillment operations need a solution that is adaptable and capable of serving a wide range of consumer demands to keep orders flowing accurately and efficiently,” says Kevin Roach, executive vice president and general manager, Intelligrated Software.
“This put wall solution allows our customers to adjust physical locations according to specific, changing needs without requiring new hardware or services. This opens up a new avenue for continuous improvement in the warehouse, as the optimal configuration can be continually refined with no external costs—it’s a big win for our customers.”
