Lucas Systems New Market Study Exposes Knowledge Gaps

Atlanta, GA and Pittsburgh, PA – March 9, 2020 — Lucas Systems, Inc., the leading provider of work execution software solutions for warehouses and distribution centers, is introducing a new Enterprise Analytics solution (Lucas Insight) at MODEX 2020 (Booth #9619). Lucas Insight provides supply chain executives with real-time trend analysis and insights into key performance indicators across their distribution networks. Lucas Insight improves planning and performance by allowing supply chain leaders to view KPIs across sites, and to identify trends and troubleshoot issues.

“Despite capturing terabytes of data in their DC operations, many supply chain and distribution executives don’t have the information they need in a format they can use to spot trends and identify opportunities for improving performance across their distribution networks,” says Andrew Southgate, V.P. Global Sales and Marketing at Lucas. “Lucas Insight solves this by combing current and historical operating data in powerful data visualizations tailored to key warehouse performance metrics around quality, throughput, productivity, efficiency, and exceptions.”

The Lucas Insight solution includes web dashboards displaying charts, graphs and other data visualizations. Executives can drill down to perform analysis at both the individual site level or across sites, without impacting performance of their operational systems. Lucas Insight is available now to new customers and existing users of the Lucas Work Execution Solution.

At MODEX 2020, Lucas is hosting an educational session describing how next generation analytics and machine learning tools can be used to improve DC planning and operations. The session will describe how new technologies can give operators real-time insights and accurate predictions to improve workforce planning, product slotting, and resource allocation.

MODEX attendees who visit Booth 9619 can also get a demo of Lucas Insight and the complete Lucas Work Execution solution including:

  • Lucas Dynamic Work Optimization, an AI-based product that reduces travel 50-70 percent in picking and other DC processes;
  • Lucas Move featuring Jennifer Voice, the industry leading voice-directed applications for warehouses and distribution centers. At MODEX Lucas is demonstrating Jennifer voice on a variety of Android wearable and mobile devices, including smartwatches and glasses.
  • Lucas Engage, our work execution and management reporting system for optimizing hands-on processes by complementing existing IT and automation systems.
