Warehouse Performance Optimisation

Reduce Structural Rehandling in Mature Spirits Warehousing

AI-assisted planning that reduces unnecessary movement, improves warehouse stability, and supports smarter maturation decisions.

The warehouse is working against itself

Static movement logic, paper picklists, and driver discretion create structural waste that compounds over years of maturation.

80%

of pallet movements in dense maturation warehouses are typically non-value-added

Hundreds of thousands

of pallet movements occur each year in large maturation facilities

Structural rehandling

emerges from static pick logic, deep stacking, and limited forward planning

Operational expertise

is often consumed by routine decisions that could be automated

Many warehouse decisions that consume planner and warehouse manager time — such as sequencing high-volume brands or resolving access conflicts — are deterministic optimisation problems that can be solved computationally.

See Flux Yield in action

A short walkthrough of how the platform works.

Demo walkthrough

What you’ll see when we walk through the platform together.

1

Warehouse Overview

See the full warehouse layout with real-time occupancy, pallet positions, and movement activity across all blocks.

2

Demand Reconciliation

Watch the system reconcile incoming blend instructions against current stock positions and generate an optimised plan.

3

Pick & Restow Planning

See how pick sequences are optimised to minimise rehandling, with restow instructions generated automatically.

4

Driver Task Interface

Experience the one-task-per-screen driver view — clear instructions, no routing decisions, always matches reality.

5

NVA & Movement Analytics

Review live metrics: NVA ratio, movement intensity, handling frequency, and scenario-based impact analysis.

6

Explainability & Governance

Every decision includes reasoning and confidence levels. Fully traceable, auditable, and defensible in governance forums.

How it works

A continuous loop from commercial signal to warehouse execution.

1

Signal arrives

A blend instruction changes, a forecast updates, or a new delivery requirement enters the system.

2

Plan regenerates

Flux Yield regenerates pick, restow, and laydown plans against a rolling planning horizon. The system also identifies high-volume deterministic decisions that can be automated, allowing planners to focus on genuinely complex cases.

3

Drivers execute

One task per screen. Sequenced batching. No routing decisions required by the driver.

4

Reality feeds back

Each confirmation triggers localised regeneration, re-sequencing future tasks and keeping the plan aligned.

Six jobs, one platform

Every capability is mapped to a real job your operation needs done.

1
Demand Reconciliation

Reconcile demand with reality

When forecasts change, dynamically regenerate pick, restow, and laydown plans so the warehouse always executes against current reality.

2
Handling Reduction

Reduce structural handling intensity

Optimise sequencing and laydown to eliminate avoidable rehandling at source. Reduce cumulative stress on maturing assets.

3
Explainability

Every decision explained

Clear reasoning and confidence levels at the point of action. Planners govern, directors defend, trust compounds over time.

4
Commercial Integration

Link operations to outcomes

Align warehouse movement decisions with forward-looking demand and loss modelling. Efficiency supports financial performance, not just throughput.

5
Value Realisation

Prove and defend value

Track movement intensity, NVA ratio, and financial impact in real time. Measurable, attributable, and defensible in governance forums.

6
Routine Decision Automation

Automate deterministic warehouse decisions

Automate deterministic warehouse decisions such as sequencing high-volume brands, resolving predictable access conflicts, and prioritising routine picks. Free operational experts to focus on exceptional cases.

Same people. Same warehouse. Different outcomes.

Typical operational impact

Observed in simulation environments and early deployments.

10–20pp

reduction in non-value-added movement in simulation environments

Structural movement reduction

tens of thousands of pallet movements avoided annually in large warehouses

Operational headroom

routine planning decisions automated, freeing experienced staff for higher-value work

Scenario planning

handling efficiency balanced with maturation loss protection

Where the value comes from

Flux Yield improves performance in multiple areas simultaneously:

Different warehouses realise value from different combinations of these effects.
