Autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) work alongside humans to improve existing processes or create new ones. For example, by having robots come to workers who are performing picking tasks and transporting the goods away, the human workers spend less time on their feet moving around the warehouse and more time performing the more demanding task of picking.

By implementing wireless tracking technology, the movement of equipment and people through the warehouse can be optimized - which includes more intelligent efforts at maintaining safe social distances in the workplace.

The automated processes in place at the Smart Warehouse in Beringe are accompanied by training and certification opportunities for existing DHL employees so they can focus on doing more complicated warehouse tasks best left to humans.

DHL Supply Chain recently launched a smart warehouse for international food packaging and processing company Tetra Pak in Singapore. The warehouse integrates internet of things (loT) technology with data analytics to constantly monitor and maintain the conditions of perishable goods.

The combination of big data and loT technology allows Tetra Pak to troubleshoot problems in real time. For instance, warehouse supervisors can use data to improve traffic flow, resource planning, and more efficiently make work assignments. The tech also reduces collision risks and monitors areas with restricted access through management alerts.

Goods are shelved within half an hour of arrival, and outgoing deliveries are prepared in just over an hour and a half.

The warehouse launch fits with other investments DHL Supply Chain has been making over the past few years. Most recently in May, the company expanded the number of warehouses that use its "smart glasses" vision picking tool, which implements augmented reality technology. In December, it announced plans to implement several emerging technologies in 350 of its 430 North American facilities, including augmented reality, loT and robotics process automation.

Last November, the company ordered 10 Tesla Electric Class 8 semi-trailer trucks, which include self-navigation technology, to address a driver shortage. Earlier in 2017, the company also launched a pilot program testing robotic workers in warehouses and implemented loT at an automotive site in China.

1)Intelligent supply chains, which are able to respond quickly to changes and unplanned circumstances, rely heavily on smart logistics to be able to facilitate such demands. for a supply chain to be able to have the information and flexibility to be able to be intelligent, technology such as ICT and Automation need to be implemented as they will allow for greater efficiency and productivity, while also reducing the human error and interference. These technologies are also able to streamline the complexities of a supply chain, as it will all be able to be formed under one system through the use of technologies like cloud computing and blockchain.

2)By improving logistic capabilities we are able to reduce complexities and vulnerabilities in a supply chain. for example, by introducing big data computing, we will be able to create forecasts and predictions based on past data. this can allow us to guage the potential risks, provide greater visibility and allow for optimized decision making for better supply chain performance

Smart logistics and intelligent supply chain allows for better visibility in the supply chain and allow for real time optimisation. With better visibility, it allows for predictive forecasting and analysis. This allows for sensitive just in time changes to the supply chain.

Improving supply chain capabilities increases efficiency and reduces operating costs such as warehouse inventory costs due to increase of JIT capabilities. It also reduces delays due to inefficiency planning. With can improve customer sastifaction
