Supply Chain Secrets: How Robotics is Changing the Game with Andy Williams

In this episode of the Digital Supply Chain podcast, I had the pleasure of diving deep into the world of warehouse robotics with Andy Williams, the EVP of Sales for ExoTec.Ever wondered how robotics is reshaping the supply chain landscape? Andy gives us a front-row seat into the transformative power of automation. We chat about everything from the Skypod system, a game-changer in warehouse operations, to the pivotal role of software in orchestrating the flow of goods. One of the most intriguing parts? The discussion on the flexibility that modern robotic systems bring. Gone are the days when businesses had to predict their needs with pinpoint accuracy. Today's systems adapt, scale, and evolve with the ever-changing demands of the business world. We also touched on the potential of AI and machine learning in the warehouse space. Imagine a world where robots learn, adapt, and optimize operations on the fly. It's not sci-fi; it's happening now! And for those curious about the human aspect, we delve into how workers perceive and interact with these robots. Spoiler: It's not what you might think! Want to know more?
