ASICS America Enhances Inventory Management Efficiency by 60% with Corvus Robotics Drones
- Published
Corvus Robotics has announced that ASICS America Corporation is utilizing Corvus One autonomous inventory drones at its Byhalia, MS distribution center. This implementation has led to a sixfold increase in inventory counting frequency in high-risk storage areas, allowing for monthly counts instead of biannual ones. ASICS reports a 60% faster recovery of misplaced inventory since deploying the drones, reallocating approximately 200 hours of monthly labor towards inventory research and exception resolution.
The significance of this development lies in its impact on ASICS's operational efficiency and customer satisfaction. By reducing the time taken to locate misplaced inventory, the drones help prevent order cancellations due to stock discrepancies. Kyle Koestler, senior director of distribution and transportation at ASICS America, highlighted that the drones enable monthly cycle counting, allowing for quicker identification of errors and ensuring timely delivery of customer orders.
ASICS's use of Corvus One drones marks a pivotal shift in inventory management practices. The facility, which manages close to 3 million units, has seen the drones uncover 26 misplaced cases containing over 200 pairs of shoes in just three months. No further timeline was disclosed at the time of publication.
