Autonomous Warehousing: Competitiveness on the Global Stage and Advantages to Military Warehousing

Abstract

Through the combination of renewable energy resources, robotics within warehousing and artificial intelligence two benefits emerge. The first benefit is reducing warehouse operating costs, through the creation of an autonomous warehouse, leading to a greater competitive edge in the global marketplace of warehousing. The second benefit is to military warehousing in increasing efficiencies in energy sustainment of deployable information technology systems, increased productivity in light of workforce reduction, and the opportunity for a deeper analysis of inventory management via artificial intelligence.
