Bastian Solutions Reports eCommence Demands Driving Goods to Person Order Fulfillment Throughout 2015

 

Indianapolis, IN -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/02/2015 -- Goods-to-Person order fulfillment is a modern method of order fulfillment. The product is moved directly to the operator, who can then pick what is needed to fulfill orders. It allows for an increase in efficiency and accuracy of the picking process. Bastian Solutions, the leading material handling systems integrator is ideal for ergonomic picking, easily scalable, and produces a smaller footprint using less space.

The goods-to-person solutions method is capturing media attention yet not a new concept. Technologies such as carousels, automated guided vehicles, and automated storage and retrieval systems have performed goods-to-person order fulfillment for decades. They perform the basic goods-to-person functionality of retrieving stored product and bringing it to an operator for order picking.

The difference between these technologies from today's more advanced goods-to-person systems is the level of performance. The latest order fulfillment technologies far exceed predecessors in terms of productivity, space utilization, and flexibility. Although carousels, AGVs, and ASRS are still important order fulfillment technologies, the advantages of new, advanced systems are hard to ignore.

The extraordinary growth in online sales is driving goods-to-person order fulfillment because it is a great solution for many e-commerce companies. Additionally as labor costs continue to rise, it is more expensive for fulfillment companies to do business and stay competitive.

Combined with increasing demand for 24-hour ship times and an efficient order fulfillment system capable of reducing cycle time, Bastian Solutions sees great demand for goods-to-person in 2015.

Bastian Solutions will exhibit at the WestPack Conference (Booth #4979) from February 10-12 at the Anaheim Convention Center, CA.

Following WestPack, Bastian Solutions will be exhibiting at ProMat 2015 (Booth #3953) held March 23-26 at Chicago's McCormick Place. Use the following link for free ProMat 2015 registration from Bastian Solutions. http://www.promatshow.com/register.aspx?ref=attendees&acid=39225
