AutoScheduler.AI, a warehouse orchestration software platform that enhances the capabilities of warehouse management systems (WMS), has launched its centralized warehouse orchestration service, which aims to give companies a centralized view of multi-site data. AutoPilot Central is designed to give supply chain executives a “bird’s eye,” aggregated view across multiple sites. More importantly, the company says, is the ability to rank them and take corrective action for areas out of service to mitigate risk across the network.

“With the pace at which warehouses introduce new technology and dynamically change, managing an operation has become overwhelming, especially since leading shippers with multiple sites often have different WMS at each location,” said Keith Moore, CEO of AutoScheduler.AI. “AutoPilot Central provides a birds-eye view of multi-site data for centralized command and control of an entire distributed warehouse network. At the network level, the history and result of these plans can then be bubbled up to Directors and VPs of distribution to identify the potential flow issues that are going to occur inside of a network, which customers/shipments are at risk, and where action can be taken to avoid service failures.”

AutoPilot Central aggregates multi-site AutoScheduler data. Using predictive analytics, it enables supply chain officers to rank the sites, quickly see which areas across the network are out-of-tolerance or at risk and take corrective action to mitigate risk before chaos happens.

With AutoPilot and AutoPilot Central, the company says, supply chain managers can reduce planning time by 97%, reduce inventory waste by 13%, and optimize labor planning, among other benefits.
