Zebra Technologies Corp.
Summary of Innovation
FulfillmentEdge integrates existing real-time WMS data with real-time location information, providing visibility into the location of workers, inventory and material handling assets. The solution then analyzes the information and creates real-time workflows delivered as electronic tasks that can contain visual directions to the next pick location and photos of the item to ensure picking accuracy. Now, one worker can simultaneously pick multiple orders, enabling businesses to dramatically increase order fulfillment times and boost worker productivity up to 24 percent.
Innovation Statement
Zebra’s FulfillmentEdge was developed to help organizations augment the mobile workflow functionality of their WMS without major disruption to operations. FulfillmentEdge extends the installed WMS to enable an optimized Mobile User Experience (mUX) that features dynamic workflows, the ability to inject new technologies and mobile device types, as well as dramatically improved, intuitive user interfaces that make even the newest workers fully productive faster.
Applicability
Using Zebra’s solution, a single worker can be directed to pick multiple orders and put away incoming shipments and returned items — all in a single trip through the warehouse — enabling businesses to pick up to 24 percent more orders per day without adding staff.
