With the acceleration of automation, warehouse management software, and AI-enabled optimization, the future of warehouse planning is rapidly changing. How can OEMs prepare their warehouses, both existing and planned, for success with these up-and-coming technologies?  This session explores how OEMs can set the groundwork for a successful warehouse of the future. The discussion will particularly dive into warehouse design and staffing decisions considering current and future technologies. We will cover what OEMs have done and what they are planning, while bringing in Ducker Carlisle’s own perspective. The session will help participants define what their warehouse network—and workforce—must look like on the path to 2040.
