Product of the Year 2021: S&P Computersysteme GmbH wins in the category »Software«

29.03.2021

S&P Computersysteme GmbH was elected »Product of the Year 2021« in the category software with the topic “Warehouse Healing: Path Time Reduction through Intelligent Algorithms and the WMS SuPCIS-L8” in this year's readers' choice of the trade medium of intralogistics materialfluss.

S&P Computersysteme GmbH convinced the jury in the nomination and the readers of the trade journal materialfluss with its innovative new development »Warehouse Healing: Path time reduction through intelligent algorithms and the WMS SuPCIS-L8« and was chosen as the winner in the category »Software«. The innovative solution from S&P prevailed in the readers' poll, in which more than 20,000 votes were cast. »We are pleased about the choice and thank the readers for their interest. It is a good example that digitalisation in the warehouse is not just an empty phrase, but actually produces new ideas and products with great benefits for the users.« S&P Managing Directors Horst Reichert and Rémy El Abd thanked presenter Martin Schrüfer, Editor-in-Chief of WEKA Business Medien, during the digital award ceremony.

The minimisation of travel times through the intelligent placement of products is currently attracting great interest within the logistics industry. The innovation »Warehouse Healing« by S&P Computersysteme GmbH can drastically reduce the transit time in manual and automated warehouses. This is achieved, among other things, by analysing the order history in order to uncover product affinities and classic order frequencies. A healing algorithm, which improves itself using machine learning methods, generates stock transfer suggestions and changes putaway suggestions to minimise the distances to be covered during picking. The improved state in the warehouse can be maintained with little ongoing effort, because stock transfers with the greatest effect are always determined and suggested first.

Since 2020, the intralogistics trade medium materialfluss has initiated the election of the Product of the Year and lets the readers decide. With the award, the trade medium materialfluss primarily combines the goal of making the exciting and innovative products and projects from intralogistics and logistics visible and having them chosen by the most expert jury, the readers. What the readers like and vote for will be awarded a prize. There were 79 products in a total of 8 categories up for election as »Product of the Year 2021«.
