Manufacturing journalist, Thomas R. Cutler recently contributed a feature article titled, “Using Lesson Learned: Automating In Store Applications,” published in the current issue of Automation and Controls Today. Cutler reported, “The line between manufacturing and warehouse became muddy over the past decade as out sourcing became common place. Companies that were solid manufacturing organizations had to become efficient and effective using warehousing and distribution processes. That line between manufacturing and distribution has now been crossed right into the front door of retailers worldwide. The lessons of ergonomics in plants and distribution centers are now seen at shelving, in the aisle, and in the back room of retail operations.”
