Pilot project brings4x picking efficiency to CEVALogisticswarehouse

MELBOURNE,Australia,Nov. 11,2021 --Geek+,a global AMR leader,is proud to announce the successful deployment of AMRs in CEVA Logistics's Truganinawarehouse. CEVA isa global third-party logistics (3PL)provider looking for new and innovative automation solutions to better serve itsAustralian e-commerceclients. Implemented by Körber Supply Chain,the projectgreatlyimprovesefficiency and productivityin the warehouse,ensuring smoother order fulfillmentfor CEVA'scustomers.

Lit Fung,Geek+'s Managing Director for APAC,UK,and Americas,said: "Today,an accelerated demand for fast order fulfillment has created a challenging scenario for businesses everywhere. In Australia,a booming e-commerce landscape has made 'delivery services'the determining factor of who's going to come out on top. Using smart robot automation,CEVA has turned a challenge into an opportunity that will allow them to set the standard and gain considerable advantages."

With upwards of 500,000 square meters of warehouse space and 1,350 employees,the site in Australia is one of the largest warehouses in the southern hemisphere.When a leading online shoe store experienced rapid growth,CEVA began looking at ways theycould help the company meet consumers'demands forspeed and cost of delivery. Previously,CEVA would havehadto addmore employees to an already labor-intensive process,with 12 to 15 employees using radiofrequencypicking devicesto complete one order.Today,Geek+ autonomous mobile robots intelligently and flexibly move mobile inventory racks and pallets to picking stations,saving employees time that would otherwisebe spent walking around findingand pickinginventory. The result is an overallimprovement in employee comfort and logistical efficiency,as well as considerable savings.

"Thanks toGeek+'s AMR technology,we now havea very fast and efficient picking productivity and throughput solution,"saidMilton Pimenta,CEVA Logistics'smanaging director for Australiaand New Zealand.

Following theproject'sseamless implementation,CEVA saw an immediate improvement inkey performance indicators,most notably afourfold increase inpicking efficiency.CEVA plans to use the solution to support its wide customer base,securing its leadership position as a first-rate logistics provider.

"CEVA feel that a number oftheirclients could benefit from AMR technology. As this was the first pilot project for the business,it was extremely important that we delivered on our predictions," said Ravi Nath,Körber Supply Chain'shead of automated solutions for Australia and New Zealand.

Geek+ willcontinue towork closely with Körber to help scale operations across regions and support CEVA with efficient,accurate,and flexible AMR solutions forthe company's wide network of global customers.
