This podcast episode is about an e-commerce logistics use case in smart warehousing. The challenge is the classic processes such as inbound, storage and outbound, which are very personnel-intensive. There are a lot of manual operations, such as sorting, searching, scanning and moving boxes to the different logistics zones. Incorrect bookings, packing errors and empty runs must be avoided in order to withstand the high cost pressure. Textile wholesaler TB International is supported in these processes by INTRANAV. INTRANAV (an Inpixon company) is an expert in the field of industrial IoT real-time localization systems (RTLS), the location of a wide variety of objects via wireless technologies. TB International is one of the most successful textile wholesalers for major fashion brands, such as Urban Classics, and carries a total of 15 textile and accessory brands with approximately 15,000 retailers worldwide. This podcast episode is about efficiency improvements in intralogistics, open sources, live data, heatmaps, RFID, human-technology interfaces, hybrid cloud, MQTT, SAP, WIREPAS, MESH, tags, BLE, UBB and much more.
