Kenco’s Innovative Use of AI With Slot DC and Control Tower Solutions

Kenco, a leading third-party logistics (3PL) provider, implements AI into its operations innovatively through its Control Tower and Slot DC solutions.

The 3PL’s Control Tower is an AI-enabled software solution that manages an entire trucking network.

The all-in-one transportation management solution, previously only visible through multiple disparate apps, allows for faster and better decision making.

Control Tower is especially innovative because it utilizes AI to deliver unprecedented insight into networks, including forecasting delays and exceptions before they occur, as well as making recommendations for better logistical outcomes.

Kenco’s Slot DC is an automated slotting and zoning tool designed to help companies optimize their forward picking areas.

The web-based software uses machine learning and AI to predict which products need to be slotted or re-zoned while considering easy-to-miss patterns, profile changes and seasonality.

It is 100% automated and requires little, if any, manual manipulation. Both solutions have generated significant savings for Kenco’s customers by improving the visibility and efficiency of their operations.
