How Cargon Automated Its Floor Before Peak Season

Overview

Peak season used to mean hundreds of temporary workers and crossed fingers. Cargon rebuilt its fulfillment floor to handle volume on its own.

Every year, Cargon scaled for peak by hiring fast and hoping the floor held. Mis-ships climbed and the team burned out by December.

The bottleneck

Manual sorting and routing couldn't flex with demand. When a lane jammed, the whole floor slowed while people scrambled to reroute.

Integration, not replacement

Precept added autonomous material handling into Cargon's existing floor. The system maps the space and reroutes itself the moment a lane backs up.

The result

Cargon moved more orders per hour through peak with fewer mis-ships, and for the first time, without living at the warehouse.
