ST Logistics has embarked on a transformative journey to leverage cutting-edge AI and automation technologies across its warehouses.
In partnership with Lenovo, the Singapore-based logistics firm aims to transform its supply chain processes, driving innovation and sustainability in line with Singapore’s Industry 5.0 vision.
The need to modernise its warehouse operations was driven by increasing demands for efficiency, accuracy, and sustainability in the competitive logistics sector.
The company sought to optimise its supply chain processes while upskilling its workforce to adapt to new technologies.
Lenovo conducted thorough on-site visits and meetings to understand ST Logistics’ specific goals and challenges. This collaborative approach ensured that the solutions were tailored to meet the company’s unique needs.
Comprehensive AI solutions
Following an assessment of the needs, Lenovo proposed a comprehensive suite of hardware, software and services to support ST Logistics’ digital transformation.
- Warehouse execution system: An AI-powered solution that automatically identifies the quickest and safest routes within warehouses for efficient goods transportation.
- High-performance computing: Lenovo’s ThinkSystem solutions power AI algorithms to optimise goods storage, prioritising items ready for immediate shipping.
- Smart warehouse solutions: A range of intelligent technologies to enhance overall warehouse operations.
“Lenovo delivered more than hardware and software. Their support and ecosystem drove tangible outcomes, forming the foundation of our strong partnership,” said Lance Ong, Deputy General Manager (Operations) od Homeland Security at ST Logistics.
Significant benefits
The implementation of AI-powered solutions has yielded significant benefits for ST Logistics. Order fulfillment times have been drastically reduced, while efficiency in goods transportation and storage has markedly improved.
Enhanced accessibility of items ready for immediate shipping has streamlined operations, leading to increased overall warehouse productivity. Additionally, the workforce has been upskilled and is now capable of operating advanced smart warehouse solutions to ensure long-term competitiveness.
“We have always been at the forefront of AI technology, and by integrating our solutions across ST Logistics’ supply chain processes, we’re not just optimising logistics; we’re pioneering a new era of intelligent and sustainable supply chains,” said Nigel Lee, General Manager of Lenovo Singapore.
