Maximising Staff Productivity

Your team is your greatest asset but if they’re weighed down by repetitive tasks and inefficient tools then your productivity stalls.

The challenge

Your staff aren’t under‑performing - they’re overburdened by inefficient systems.

In many growing warehouses, much of the workload still sits with people: manual picking, repetitive scanning, walking between zones, trying to compensate for technology gaps.

When productivity is constrained you may experience:

  • Time wasted on routine tasks

  • Staff burnout and low morale

  • Rising reliance on temporary labour

  • Difficulty retaining skilled team members

  • Training overheads increasing

  • Performance dropping under pressure

Other challenges
FAQs
Will automation replace our warehouse staff?

Our approach is about augmenting your team, not replacing them. Automation handles repetitive tasks so your people can focus on value-adding work.

How much can walking time be reduced?

In goods-to-person systems, products come to your staff rather than them walking to products, often reducing walking by 70-90%.

What about staff who aren’t tech-savvy?

Our systems are designed to be intuitive. Our multipurpose workstations, for example, use simple visual cues that require minimal training.

How do you measure productivity improvements?

We track metrics like picks per hour, orders per shift, and error rates before and after implementation to quantify improvements.

Can automation help with staff retention?

Yes, by reducing physical strain and repetitive tasks, automation often improves job satisfaction and helps retain experienced team members.

What productivity gains are typical?

Results vary, but clients commonly see 2-3x improvements in pick rates and significant reductions in errors.
