We solve a wide range of problems that are encountered in the network, including labor planning and staffing, demand prioritization, pick assignment and scheduling, and flow process optimization. We are tasked to develop innovative, scalable, and reliable science-driven solutions that are beyond the published state of art in order to run frequently (ranging from every few minutes to every few hours per use case) and continuously in our large scale network.
