Warehouse automation refers to utilizing mechanical or electronic devices to substitute for human labor, and key considerations involve noticeable improvement in warehousing effectiveness and efficiency. With respect to effectiveness, organizations should delineate the key benefits associated with automation and then evaluate whether any of the benefits could be achieved without automation (e.g., working smarter on particular tasks). As for efficiency, organizations must look beyond just the initial automated-related investment costs and factor in other expenditures, such as operating, repair, and maintenance costs as well as relevant personnel and management costs.
