What's Happening?
MHP, a management and IT consultancy, is set to showcase its integrated logistics solutions at LogiMAT 2026 in Stuttgart from March 24-26. The company will demonstrate how its FleetExecuter automated guided vehicle (AGV) fleet management system integrates with SAP Digital Manufacturing and SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) systems. This integration aims to create seamless end-to-end logistics processes, addressing challenges faced by companies using separate systems for production, transport, and warehouse operations. The integration is designed to eliminate manual handovers, media discontinuities, and lack of transparency. A live demonstration at the event will feature a cocktail machine to illustrate the production process, allowing
visitors to initiate orders and observe real-time system interactions. Additionally, MHP will present a case study on a multi-site SAP EWM rollout at Jägermeister, highlighting warehouse automation.
Why It's Important?
The integration of logistics systems is crucial for companies looking to streamline operations and reduce costs. By demonstrating the seamless interaction between different systems, MHP aims to show how businesses can overcome logistical challenges such as changing production requirements and rising costs. This approach can lead to increased efficiency and transparency in logistics processes, which is vital for companies in competitive industries. The ability to manage production, material requirements, and warehouse operations through integrated systems can significantly enhance operational efficiency and reduce the potential for errors, ultimately benefiting businesses by improving their bottom line.
What's Next?
Following the demonstration at LogiMAT 2026, companies may consider adopting similar integrated logistics solutions to enhance their operational efficiency. The case study on Jägermeister's SAP EWM rollout could serve as a model for other businesses looking to automate their warehouse operations. As more companies recognize the benefits of integrated systems, there may be increased demand for such solutions, prompting further innovation and development in the logistics technology sector. Stakeholders in the logistics and manufacturing industries will likely monitor the outcomes of these demonstrations to assess the potential impact on their operations.
