GRAND RAPIDS, MICHIGAN – June 14, 2016 – Dematic, a leading global supplier of integrated automated technology, software and services to optimize the supply chain, today announces the latest release of the operational analytics capabilities for its real-time software automation platform, Dematic iQ 2.1.

Modern distribution centers and warehouses require quick access to operational information, both current and historical, to make actionable decisions. The Operational Analytics built into this latest release provides a variety of persona-based views and reports designed especially for users ranging from executives to maintenance staff.

In addition, this latest Dematic software release provides advanced metrics, access to intuitive information and visibility that allow users to:

• Identify problems they may be unaware of, such as a decline in productivity despite lower order volumes.
• Identify and analyze discrepancies in picker productivity.
• Drill down from summary views to explore and identify root cause factors.
• Easily compare performance among distribution centers.

"Accessing this information no longer requires downloading machine-level data, parsing it into a spreadsheet, and spending days analyzing the data to identify bottlenecks and trends," states Dave Adams, Dematic Director of Research & Development for Global Logistics Solutions. "Instead, with a few keystrokes, any user can see what is happening and take the actions needed to solve the problem."

Operational Analytics is available as an integrated component of Dematic iQ suite or as a stand-alone product that can provide fast, easy and meaningful visibility to operations data.
