The cosmetics warehouse suffered from high labor and recruitment costs, complex workflows, and high order volume. JD.com and ForwardX devised a solution using ForwardX’s overhead Optix System and 23 Flex AMRs. The solution was launched in just two weeks with no warehouse remodeling needed. Each worker is in a picking aisle or zone where the AMRs come to meet them to fulfill orders, eliminating all long walks. The result was improved picking efficiency and accuracy, operational cost savings, and a fast ROI.
