AutoScheduler to Exhibit and Present at Gartner Supply Chain Symposium/Xpo™ 2023

Presentation on the Grandmaster Warehouse and How Planning Tools Help to Optimize the Warehouse

AutoScheduler to Exhibit and Present at  Gartner Supply Chain Symposium/Xpo™ 2023

Austin, TX - (May 8, 2023) –AutoScheduler.AI, an innovative Warehouse Management System (WMS) accelerator, will be exhibiting and presenting at the Gartner Supply Chain Symposium/Xpo™ 2023, which is held May 8-10, 2023, at the Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin Resort in Lake Buena Vista, FL. Keith Moore, CEO of AutoScheduler, will speak on AutoScheduler.AI: Grandmaster Warehouse on May 8, 2023, at 1:10 PM on Stage 1.

The Gartner Supply Chain Symposium offers attendees a one-stop-shop to access research-backed sessions, expert advice, and problem-solving with industry peers and colleagues. Gartner Supply Chain Symposium/Xpo addresses the strategic needs of CSCOs and supply chain executives.


“Statistics show that 99% of warehouses run imperfectly,” says Keith Moore, CEO, AutoScheduler.AI. “They use heuristics, tribal knowledge, overtime, and elbow grease to ‘just make it work.’ Frequently trucks are late, people don't show up, robotic system implementations don't stay on schedule, and much more. That's why warehouses must use a warehouse resource optimizer to dynamically improve operations and increase efficiencies."

In Keith’s talk, he will discuss how one percent of warehouse sites don’t have these problems because they’re using a new breed of software to automate the planning function inside of the building. This software tells who is doing what, where, and when. Attendees will learn how these planning tools can turn an imperfect warehouse into an optimized one, helping sites minimize travel, reduce touches, ship on time/in full, and drive labor efficiency.

Sitting on top of a WMS, AutoScheduler uses capacity-constrained schedules to solve problems such as on-time, in-full deliveries, labor shortages, and inventory imbalances while ensuring customer demand is met. Optimizing warehouse efficiency is the best way to improve supply chain operations OTIF, and leveraging technologies such as prescriptive analytics and warehouse orchestration can help acquire what’s left on the table in supply chain operations.

In addition to participating at the North America Gartner Supply Chain Symposium/Xpo 2023, executives from AutoScheduler will be exhibiting at the Gartner Supply Chain Symposium/Xpo™ 2023 conference, 5 – 7 June, in Barcelona, Spain.

Keith Moore is the Chief Executive Officer for AutoScheduler.AI and focuses on bringing the future of technology into warehousing. He works with the top 10 Consumer Goods, Beverage, and Distribution companies to drive efficiency in distribution centers. AutoScheduler will be demonstrating its product offerings at the symposium in Booth 114.

Roboteon announces breakthrough simulation capability for mobile robots in distribution

Roboteon, provider of a powerful software platform for warehouse robot enablement, announces breakthrough simulation capabilities in its platform for robotics and other warehouse automation. The new tool help companies make better decisions across multiple time horizons, from initial automation planning through real time execution on the floor.

Interest in Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) and other robotics is high, but there remains much uncertainty about use cases, the number of AMRs and humans needed across different time horizons, expected operational improvements, and cost savings from the robotics investment.

Penske Truck Leasing lights up new solar-powered facility initiative

Reading, Pa. – Nov. 18, 2024 - Penske Truck Leasing is lighting up a new solar-powered initiative seeking to boost efficiency, minimize energy costs, and reduce emissions initially at select truck leasing, truck rental, and truck maintenance locations in the U.S. with the installation and activation of its first-ever rooftop solar-powered systems.

The company’s new state-of-the-art facility in Channahon, Illinois, is now fully operational, and is predominantly powered by an onsite photovoltaic (PV) solar system, expected to generate roughly 80% of the building’s energy needs at 200 KW capacity. Any remaining required energy will be supplied by the local utility provider.
