July 2024 – Unipart Logistics has implemented DexoryView, an advanced visibility platform from Dexory – a pioneer in AI-powered robotics and visibility solutions. Following the deployment of DexoryView at Unipart’s Nuneaton warehouse, and as a result of the enhanced visibility using DexoryView, tangible benefits in operational efficiency and inventory accuracy have been achieved.
Prasad Manorathna, Unipart’s Automation and Innovation Director explained why DexoryView is such a great step forward for the business, “At Unipart Logistics, we have the vision of becoming a technology led logistics partner. We are constantly looking for new technologies that can bring value to our customers. Our recent engagement with Dexory is a huge leap forward in adopting stock taking and inventory automation solutions and use of autonomous mobile robots within our warehouses. I am excited about the roll-out opportunities this brings and the data it provides to make intelligent decisions. I would like to extend my thanks to everyone involved in this project.”
DexoryView benefits for inventory management
By implementing DexoryView’s capabilities, Unipart can now conduct comprehensive scans of an entire warehouse inventory overnight. This ensures up-to-date inventory data is available at the start of each day. A level of accuracy that was previously unattainable through manual stock checks, which were limited to random samplings.
With DexoryView, Unipart can scan more than 10,000 locations per hour, resulting in greater efficiency in resources, and optimised stock allocation.
“The deployment of DexoryView allows us to gain further insights into our operations,” says James Hayden, Automation Engineering Manager at Unipart. “This strategic investment underscores Unipart’s dedication to delivering cutting-edge solutions that drive tangible value for our customers. Dexory has provided us with transformative technology that ensures we have real-time data at our fingertips. This enables us to optimise our space utilisation to be even more efficient in fulfilling customer orders. In turn this enhances Unipart’s reputation for excellence in supply chain management.”
Since implementing DexoryView, Unipart has seen the tangible benefits in operational efficiency and inventory accuracy. It is also driving an increase in employee engagement with automation and digital solutions. By eliminating manual, time-intensive tasks, Unipart’s employees can now focus on higher-value activities, contributing to increased productivity and operational efficiency.
“Working with forward-thinking organisations, such as Unipart, highlights the importance of achieving visibility in their warehouse operations.” Says Dexory Chief Commercial and Product Officer and Co-Founder, Oana Jinga. “Together, Dexory and Unipart are setting new standards of efficiency and productivity in warehouse operations, empowering businesses to thrive in an increasingly competitive landscape. Their commitment to innovation and relentless pursuit of excellence aligns seamlessly with our own values.”
