Intelligent Logistics®
Intelligent Logistics is the corporate slogan GROUND advocates and promotes to its stakeholders. This is our approach to leveraging cutting-edge solutions and technologies from around the world to continually create new value for the logistics and e-commerce industries.
Intelligent Logistics can only be achieved through the core competencies that rest on the know-how and expertise of GROUND personnel. With the three core competencies of hardware including robots, software utilizing AI and other cutting-edge technologies and the optimization of logistics operations, GROUND will lead the field of logistics technology (LogiTech) to change the world of distribution.
Dynamic Allocation System® (DyAS)
DyAS helps create field environments where operation is possible even without an experienced manager present by transforming what are conventionally personal management tasks into explicit knowledge. In addition, by developing a quantitative understanding of field operations that are sensory-based and primarily rely on experience, intuition and guts, even in recent e-commerce supply chains with a host of uncertain elements, everyone will be on the same page, from stakeholders and the managers at each site to their staff. This helps minimize unreasonableness and waste while speeding up the decision-making process and improving business quality.
GTP (Goods to Person) Robots
Butler®
Butler Robots bring inventory stored in racks to the operator. With the throughput of up to 600 picks per hour per picker, the system improves productivity by 8-10 times.
Partnership
At GROUND, we are striving to expand partnerships from a global perspective to realize our corporate slogan: Intelligent Logistics.
We are seeking two types of partners: conventional business partners to support business expansion, along with technology partners with whom we can pursue advanced activities utilizing technologies in the field of logistics.
playGROUND
On August 15, 2018, we opened playGROUND, our R&D center. To ensure that the new technologies emerging around the world can be smoothly applied to the front lines of logistics, this facility not only pursues improvements in robotic performance, but also exposes problems and challenges that cannot be verified theoretically in advance, in order to develop and verify logistics operations that get the maximum performance out of robotic solutions.
