“At GreyOrange, we’ve been solving challenges for the world’s leading brands for more than a decade. Preparing for both upcoming obstacles and scaling needs keeps our customers agile and pivot-ready when circumstances change,” said Samay Kohli, co-founder and CEO, GreyOrange. “GreyMatter, our multiagent orchestration platform, gives customers the freedom to choose the ‘best-of-breed’ fulfillment technology that fits their needs, no matter the vendor.”

Recent research from Gartner® analyst Dwight Klappich and Interact Analysis analyst Rueben Scriven projects that within the next few years, about half of companies will use intralogistics robots from various vendors. A multiagent orchestration platform like GreyMatter will be needed to power the robotic fleet and assign balanced work in real-time according to fulfillment needs. The Gartner report also reveals that by 2026 more than half of companies using intralogistics robots will use a multiagent orchestration platform containing an open API (application programming interface) for seamless connection to control multi-vendor fleets. Based on the analysts’ projections GreyOrange is currently equipping companies with solutions for future challenges.

ProMat will be held at McCormick Place in Chicago from March 20-23. Attendees represent the global supply chain and they attend the conference to witness cutting-edge innovation that solves current global challenges that also serve as clear-cut guides to pivot-ready and scalable solutions for future management and growth.
