The Mission
The traditional warehouse operation is labor intense activity. With the rapid development of global market, the role of frontier inventory becoming more crucial, especially for global online sellers. This project is to utilizing state of art AI technology to assist warehouse operation. Increasing information transparency and cost efficiency. Reducing error and mistake. Finally, assisting decision making.
The Challenge
First, different requirements for operation information between sellers and warehouse. For example, customer care about the SKU status to make business decisions, while warehouse focuses on each in and out job details. Second, complex paper documents. Third, lack of integrated information that could be used in decision making. Last but not least, the ability of making better decisions under a lot of uncertainty.
The solution
The system consolidates all information from all party involved, such as shipper, transport operator, warehouse and so on. Show dedicated data which the party care about. Digitalize documentation process. Using computer vision to monitor the warehouse status and warehouse operations, for example box counting and location identifying. The system is performed as an information infrastructure in the whole process, which is fundamental for further utilization of AI to support decision making.
