Robot Operations Framework

In the previous chapters we talked about TIP (team, infrastructure and processes) and how these parts will change over time when employing robots and going towards an automated warehouse.

All TIP parts have intersections and touch points with each other. Therefore it is important to ensure that all of them are running solidly. If your team is not educated well, then you may face problems in infrastructure or the processes. If your processes are not working, then your team is probably not able to fulfill all tasks efficiently. And if your infrastructure is not state of the art and able to host robots and the new processes that are coming with automation, then you’re set to fail.

With applying this framework to your automation journey, the first step was made. Reviewing the implementation and auditing all TIP parts regularly is the second step to bring your automation plans to life.
