This white paper explores the evolving role of robotics in logistics, driven by labor shortages, rising e-commerce demand, and the need for greater efficiency. It highlights the growth of automation in warehouses, with a focus on collaborative robots (cobots), autonomous mobile robots (AMRs), and goods-to-person systems. Robotics improve accuracy, speed, and safety while reducing operational costs. Challenges include integration with legacy systems, upfront investment, and workforce upskilling. Success depends on strong ROI analysis, scalable design, and agile partnerships. The paper emphasizes robotics as a key enabler of future-ready, resilient logistics operations.
