HSCR

We seek to solve a critical problem faced by Ninjavan's sorting center. As-Is, the facility might experience delays and potential losses due to clogs caused by high influx of goods, coupled with a disorganised sorting process that makes it difficult to locate items. Our solution involves organising the warehouse to ensure efficient pallet placement, and implementing computer vision with AI to detect vacant spaces. This will provide decision makers with real-time information to facilitate transport of goods to either the sorting hub or backlog facility. By streamlining the sorting process, we can help Ninjavan save time, money, and provide a better experience for their consignees.
