Santa Barbara warehouse managers face unparalleled challenges: mounting labor costs, mounting customer demands for quicker delivery, and expanding order complexity. For supply chain executives seeking competitive advantages, inVia Robotics presents a strong path forward through intelligent warehouse automation.

Addressing Modern Warehouse Challenges

Typical warehouse operations battle with contemporary e-commerce demands. Unlike conventional automation demanding substantial facility redesigns and capital investments, inVia Robotics reimagined the industry with their Robotics-as-a-Service (RaaS) model. This approach allows warehouses of all sizes to acquire enterprise-level automation without traditional barriers.

How inVia's Technology Works

The inVia system is composed of three integrated components optimizing warehouse operations. inVia Logic's AI-powered warehouse execution system operates as the intelligent brain, orchestrating workflows and making over one million daily decisions to achieve SLA compliance. This software analyzes order profiles, inventory data, and workforce performance to dynamically assign tasks. inVia Picker autonomous mobile robots handle tangible automation, offering compact dimensions and forty-pound payload capacity. They operate with industrial precision, employing suction cup technology while traveling down aisles at speeds approaching 5 mph. Different from traditional AMRs that rely on human workers, inVia Pickers automatically build dynamic inVia PickerWalls for offshift operations. The Robotics Operations Center (ROC) delivers continuous support plus monitoring. This remote system uses live simulations to in advance detect potential bottlenecks before hindering operations.

Proven Results Across Industries

Practical deployments demonstrate inVia's significant impact. SICK Sensor Intelligence accomplished a remarkable ten-fold increase in pick rates, rising from 75 UPH to 764 UPH while obtaining full ROI within six months. One customer tripled productivity while slashing labor costs by 70%. An additional customer reduced their labor costs by 65% and elevated productivity sixfold. These results originate from the software-first approach of inVia. Instead of starting with expensive hardware, inVia Logic enhances existing workflows first, delivering immediate two to three times productivity gains before adding robots for four to five times overall improvements.

Flexible Implementation Without Disruption

Implementation concerns warehouse operators who can't accept disruptions. The company addresses this through a streamlined five-step process rolling out automation in weeks, not months. The system connects with existing WMS through APIs and adapts to current layouts, bypassing infrastructure modifications. Twin IQ intelligent simulation technology reduces implementation risks by creating digital twins of warehouse operations. This tool permits managers to analyze scenarios and refine workflows before physical changes, providing maximum day-one efficiency.

Scalable Solutions for Growing Operations

inVia's phased approach accommodates different automation stages. Operations start with software-only solutions, transition to automated labor with robotic picking, and eventually achieve fully automated capabilities. This flexibility permits increasing automation investments concurrent with growth while maintaining continuity. The monthly subscription model matches costs with usage, removing large capital expenditures while providing predictable expenses. inVia maintains, owns, and operates all equipment throughout service contracts, minimizing internal overhead.
