Consultancy launches warehouse visualisation tools
SUPPLY CHAIN consultancy TMX Transform has introduced advanced simulation solutions designed to address the challenges of warehouse and distribution centre operations in the UK.
Simulation tools allow businesses to step into a virtual reality simulation and experience floor plans at a real, human scale during the design process.
TMX Transform UK head of country Gerry Power says: “Businesses today require modern solutions to model supply chain data. Ongoing supply chain disruptions and global volatility have facilitated a push for greater supply chain resilience. By removing the guesswork from complex ‘what if’ scenarios, our customers use simulation tools to become more agile and flexible by implementing the right technology, automation and processes.”
The TMX Transform simulation tool supports:
Network Performance Optimisation – Identifies efficient network configurations that minimise costs and maximise service levels through simulation modelling.
DC Optimisation and Operations Validation – Creates virtual representations of manual and automation DCs to assess performance and to identify gaps, potential issues, and effectiveness of operations.
Automation Feasibility Validation – Creates models of real-world processes through simulation to evaluate the impact of automation on productivity, efficiency, and cost.
In the food and beverage industry, a multinational bottling company has partnered with TMX Transform to revamp its supply chain network. By employing network strategies and simulation tools from TMX Transform, the company addressed challenges arising from mergers, supply and demand imbalances, and shifting consumption trends, resulting in a 12% annual cost savings and a 70% reduction in stockholding locations.
