E-Commerce and Grocery Stimulate Warehouse Automation and Control Market Growth
Warehouse automation and control (WAC) systems manage, control, and automate warehouse execution activities. This ARC Advisory Group research segments the market’s revenues into two high-level functional categories - warehouse control and warehouse material handling. Warehouse control includes upper-level, facility-wide control systems down to the equipment controls. Warehouse material handling includes the mechatronics (MHE) within the warehouse and the sensors and drives interfacing with equipment controls.
The rapid growth of e-commerce and its effects on fulfillment requirements remain the leading factors contributing to the growth of the warehouse automation and control market. The effects of the rapid growth of e-commerce are global and affect not only retailers, but also brand manufacturers, logistics providers (third-party logistics, parcel), and other upstream partners. Most notable this year has been the rapid and widespread increase in warehouse automation and control investment by grocery retailers. Recent heightened consumer expectations for short fulfillment horizons, such as next-day delivery, have intensified pressure on retailers and contributed to additional warehouse automation and control sales. Goods-to-person and other flexible automation are in heightened demand.
