ASAP Automation Helps Warehouses Achieve a Better Balance


New Software Add-On Gives Customers More Insight into Warehouse Operations

Louisville, Ky. - ASAP Automation (www.asapauto.com) has released Exacta Work Area Manager (WAM), a software add-on designed for Pick-to-Light and Voice Picking operations. This powerful planning tool enables users to create configurable templates that better organize and allocate warehouse resources and staff where they are most needed during picking operations.

"With Exacta, we constantly strive to provide customers with enhancements that will work best for their environment," said Eric Cameron, vice president of sales at ASAP Automation. "Exacta Work Area Manager is a simple, effective add-on that increases warehouse efficiency by allowing users to accurately assign resources."

Exacta WAM helps warehouse managers and operators balance workflow across zones, allocate warehouse staff to the busiest areas, and create customized work area templates based on workflow. Integrated into ASAP Automation's Exacta Warehouse Management System and Warehouse Control System, WAM offers a simple and intuitive interface for users to easily accomplish tasks such as assigning operators to zones or filling in row-bay values for a work area in a particular zone.

Benefits of Exacta WAM include:
  • Ability to view WAM information from any PC on the network.
  • Unlimited number of configurable templates, since workflow typically varies based on time of day and day of the week.
  • Change setup on the fly throughout the day without interrupting workflow.

    Looking ahead, ASAP Automation plans to include the Exacta WAM in all future Exacta releases and fully integrate the software module with Put-to-Light and RF handhelds.
