Berkshire Grey, Inc. (NASDAQ:BGRY), a leader in AI-enabled robotic solutions that automate supply chain processes, and Hy-Tek Intralogistics, a premier integrator of full-service automation technology for the supply chain, announce their formal partnership and celebrate the successful integration and installation of a highly-automated system for their customer, Bealls, Inc.
Despite persistent global supply chain issues, just 8 months after Bealls selected BG, the Berkshire Grey's Robotic Shuttle Product Sortation (BG RSPS) systems were live in the Bealls Jacksonville, Texas facility sorting items bound for stores. The 400,000-square-foot facility utilizes the BG RSPS solution to enable its operators to pick, sort, and pack 1,000s of items per hour. As a result, replenishment of its 575+ bealls stores has increased significantly over the past months, with early productivity improvements of 33%+ versus their previous approach.
"Berkshire Grey took a very different approach to automation than we had seen from other suppliers. BG invested the time necessary to understand our business, our operating environments, and our culture," said Ray Daugherty, Bealls Sr. Vice President, Logistics. He added, "The project completion speed and early results are impressive."
In mid-2021, Bealls sought out a robotic automation solution to handle expanding merchandise categories and expedite order fulfillment to meet heightened customer demand and increasing labor shortages. As a trusted partner of Bealls since 2004, Hy-Tek assisted with the facility design, assessment of the appropriate technology, and integration services for the project, and as previously announced, Berkshire Grey's AI-enabled solution was selected.
"Hy-Tek and Berkshire Grey were able to work together to provide Bealls with a seamless solution for processing and packing their merchandise that provided increased productivity and throughput," said Lori Gibson, Director of Consulting Services at Hy-Tek. "With Hy-Tek's expertise partnered with Berkshire Grey's solution, I have no doubt Bealls will continue to see a positive and immediate impact on their distribution processes."
Highlights of the project include:
1. Greater visibility, transparency, and insight into KPI's and key facility metrics
2. Network redundancy and increased processing power
3. Labor optimization within the new facility to create material cost savings
4. Faster replenishment to all retail stores, with multiline orders per pick
5. Increase in units per carton, resulting in increased throughput and decreased transportation requirements.
