This exclusive research study, conducted by Modern Materials Handling on behalf of Honeywell, investigates the consequences e-commerce has on an organization’s fulfillment operation. Results reveal that companies need to improve process efficiencies, streamline labor management and reduce shipping costs, and that investments in automation and warehouse management solutions will help address these, and other, operational challenges.

Survey findings further suggest that mapping key pain points to capabilities warranting attention enables companies to take on complex fulfillment practices.

Attendees will get real-world insights into:

  • Common fulfillment operational constraints and bottlenecks managers face
  • Supply chain agility and companies’ ability to transition supply chain processes to meet needs
  • Areas impacting fulfillment costs and approaches for improving productivity and efficiencies
