Seegrid Industrial Mobile Robots Deliver on Key Imperatives in Recent Aberdeen Research Report

Need to reduce operating expenses top driver for companies focused on warehouse operations

PITTSBURGH — February 17, 2010 — Seegrid Corporation (www.seegrid.com), the leader in Industrial Mobile Robots, highlighted its ability to reduce warehouse costs in a new report published by the Aberdeen Group titled “On-Time and Under Budget: Maximizing Profits with Efficient Warehouse Management." This report looks at the ways that companies help profitability by improving efficiency and removing costs in their order fulfillment operations.

For a majority of responding companies, the need to reduce operating expenses is a top driver for their focus on warehouse management. But what can be done in the warehouse or distribution center to help rein in costs and maintain the organization's profits?

"For most companies, improvement efforts start with a focus on efficiencies in the order fulfillment process," said Scott Pezza, research associate, Aberdeen Group. "Even those who are currently leading the pack when it comes to overall performance are looking to further streamline their operations and make better use of the resources they have on hand. By becoming more accurate and efficient, they reap many benefits: They can avoid costs related to fixing errors in picking and shipping; they can increase the volumes processed without raising costs; and they can free up resources that can be used to support value-added activities."

"It's clear from this latest Aberdeen report that logistics executives are not sitting idle during this time of economic uncertainty," said Brad Wyland, director of product strategy, Seegrid Corp. "They are focusing on reducing costs and freeing up resources for value-added activities. Our customers are implementing Seegrid robots with these very same goals and results.”
