Help Shape the Future of Warehousing Metrics and Automation Trends

The world of distribution and logistics is evolving at lightning speed. Balancing efficiency, effectiveness, and resource management with stakeholders' needs is no small feat. To support industry professionals, our annual benchmarking study dives into the metrics, trends, and technologies shaping the future of warehousing and distribution.

This year, we’re tackling some big questions:

• Which metrics matter most?
• What’s the real impact of automation and AI on distribution center operations?
• How are companies preparing their teams for these tech-driven changes?

Our streamlined survey explores key metrics, dives deeper into AI and automation adoption, and examines how firms choose technology partners. We aim to uncover actionable insights to help you make smarter decisions and effectively benchmark your performance.

What’s in it for you?

• Participants who complete the survey will receive a free copy of the final report (coming in early June).

Key Dates:
