System Concepting and Design

Körber’s team will work with your organization to plan and design your supply chain automation solution, which may consist of Körber equipment along with different components from various suppliers. Making sure everything is integrated seamlessly, our experts will efficiently and effectively manage all elements of System Concepting and Design.

Today’s warehouse organizations face a range of challenges:

• Most businesses are looking for ways to reduce costs and increase efficiency.
• Recruiting people to work in warehouses is becoming more difficult.
• Speed of change in the warehousing sector is increasing rapidly (due to industry advancements such as ecommerce).
• With more and more product lines being introduced, space may be an issue.
• Automation is usually the way forward but most organizations lack the technical knowledge and expertise to design a future-proof solution.

Following the consulting phase, our dedicated team of system designers will step in to manage the concept and design phase.

Most warehouse solutions comprise various technologies (conveyors, stacker cranes, robots and so forth) from a range of different suppliers. An essential part of this phase involves integrating all the disparate components into a cohesive system that functions seamlessly. Our highly skilled engineers keep up to date with all the latest supply chain automation technologies. We are also informed in terms of ongoing industry developments and research to generate supply chain optimization, making us fully qualified to plan your system.

We will manage the integration of your solution to ensure that best-of-breed Körber components – plus parts from third party suppliers if they are a better fit – work together seamlessly within a modular design.

Our impartial experts will help you select the right automation solution. We have our own range of competitive products, but we are equally willing to procure and implement other products if they are better suited to your needs.

We will work closely with your team and provide regular updates. Our experts will spend time explaining the solution in detail so you have a complete understanding of how it works. We will also calculate costs and provide timeframes.

We have the in-house skills and expertise to manage your entire end-to-end solution. From consulting through to implementation and life cycle support, Körber’s experts will be with you at every stage of your supply chain automation journey.
