Warehouse 4.0: Use Cases In Leveraging Data-Driven Technologies To Overcome Common Challenges In Warehouse Operations

This whitepaper is developed to showcase use cases in using data-driven technologies (AI, Data Analytics) to address common challenges in warehouse operations. Before delving into that topic, the paper first revisits basic knowledge regarding the normal flow of products within warehouse operations & functions of a warehouse management system; and common issues associated with warehouse management operations, which are found based on FPT’s practical experiences with logistics businesses. Once the background has been set, the paper then deep-dives into use cases where digital technologies are leveraged to help businesses overcome these challenges. Such use cases are expected to inspire further data-driven applications in management and optimize warehouse operation.
