Remember the days when certainty played a key role in your daily routine? \u2014 When the national supply chain was a given and finding what you needed only required a stop by the store or cursory search on the internet? And when you didn\u2019t have to worry that a pat on the back from a friend might hospitalize one or both of you?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And remember what it felt like to only worry about what the competition was doing to your business versus the Corona Virus, and to have confidence that you\u2019d still be employed next week? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Back then, just a few short weeks ago, certainty played a far greater role in our daily routine than we collectively realized. And the lack of it now in so many areas makes it a commodity worth pursuing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That\u2019s why we at MSI Automate are doubling down on our pursuit of certainty in the solutions we deliver to our customers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is nothing new for us, but we thought a quick review of the science-based approach we take to solution development and delivery might provide some reassurance while you weather the current uncertainty storm. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Certainty as Your Outcome<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Certainty has always been the outcome we have pursued in providing automated fulfillment solutions<\/a><\/strong> for our customers.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

To that end, we developed an actual Algorithm for Certainty<\/strong><\/a><\/em> back in early 2015, which outlined in detail the 128 meticulous steps we took back then to assure certainty in our outcomes in our design and implementation process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since then, our process has advanced to the next level as our Intralogistics Science Team has lead the industry in the creation and use of our proprietary data science and computer modeling \/ simulation tool set<\/strong><\/a>. This highly sophisticated AI tool set not only ensures faster commissioning while lowering your investment risk, but also guarantees our customers the ability to handle both anticipated and unanticipated growth in their future distribution operations. MSI Automate\u2019s advanced analytics tool set provides our customers with the highest level of design certainty by: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. Enabling rapid solution development, testing, and proof of concept.<\/li>
  2. Using machine learning to capture underlying relationships within a customer\u2019s data and replicate them into the future.<\/li>
  3. Enabling study and understanding of the sensitivity of our designs through the creation and testing of multiple alternative future scenarios.<\/li>
  4. Improving the quality and accuracy of system sizing through iterative simulations.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Our Process Modeling Methodology brings additional certainty to our solutions development process by enabling us to iteratively run simulations and analyses against client specific models that cover a broad array of production and growth scenarios. In doing so, we are able to tailor our optimization algorithms and software configuration process to client specific requirements, ensuring each MSI Automate client operational certainty in the face of fluctuating demand conditions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Certainty Through Software<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Certainty for our customers is further provided through our Automate Software Platform<\/a><\/strong>, which empowers our customers with a comprehensive solution for controlling all the logistical, equipment, and human functions in a distribution center from receiving through shipping. To that end, Automate:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
