How the Program Works


There are five key steps of the Roboteon Robotics Investment Impact Analysis program, as illustrated below.

ROA Timeline

Our robotics subject matter experts will guide you throughout the process to ensure you get the desired insights. You have nothing to lose and much to gain.

Why is Roboteon offering this program?

We’ll note that in the market today there are several online vendor calculators, which usually provide rough “back of the envelope” estimates relative to the number of robots that might be needed and from there some basic ROI numbers.

On the other end of the spectrum are expensive and time-consuming traditional simulation products that can take many weeks or months to complete.

Conversely, Roboteon’s simulation tool considers parameters such as variations in order profiles (patterns by day, time, size, lines per order, fast moving vs slow-moving SKUs, etc.), resource variations, clustering, optimization and more to generate an accurate estimate of the impact when evaluating various fleet size options, all accomplished in just 2-3 weeks with minimal effort by the company involved.

The Roboteon simulation tool provides detailed analysis, generates 25+ KPIs for each scenario, and offers powerful visualization capabilities– and best of all, it’s free.

We are confident our program can truly help companies better understand their warehouse robotics options and trade-offs. We believe some of those companies we help will eventually be interested in using our robotics fulfillment and orchestration software to power their warehouse fulfillment.

Benefits of the No Cost Analysis

  • Gain a detailed, vendor-independent understanding of the benefits of robotics automation in your facility, using your own data
  • Achieve insight into the number of robots and humans needed for various scenarios, including peak
  • See more than 25 estimated metrics, from picking costs to dwell times and more
  • Maximize your ability to get high robot utilization rates
  • Build a rock-solid business case based on granular, data-driven analysis, not vendor conjecture

FAQs


Companies that are exploring options for the implementation of robotics automation to enhance their warehouse operations will most benefit from the program. Roboteon’s simulation tool provides a risk-free approach to test various assumptions and run “what-if’ analyses as they relate to fulfillment operations, build the robotics business case, and more.

This program is primarily for order picking and other fulfillment-related use cases. We would look for companies with at least 20 fulfilment-related workers, and that either have a robotics automation initiative or are likely to start one in the next 18 months.

There will be no charge for a basic analysis for those who qualify, with generally flexible parameters.

The time and effort required of participants is modest. We just need some basic data to get started. Once initiated, the duration of the program and delivery depends on many factors, but 2-3 weeks is typical.

One option is to use 1-3 months of actual order data, in addition to information about the warehouse layout, any zoning, number of associates, inventory locations, and a few more.

However, the system can generate synthetic data by configuring an operations profile, order profiles with assumptions, for data such SKU velocities, lines per order, etc.
