How does Pick to Voice work?

Pick to voice is an exciting technology that has gained steam in warehouse technology and operations in the last few years.  Some of this is due to advances in the quality of the voice recognition accuracy, as well as tighter and more efficient integration into existing warehouse operations.

Pick to voice works very well in a fulfillment warehouse when the product base lacks consistency in both size and identification.  In many warehouses, the picking staff does not have 100% UPC bar code labeling.  This makes it difficult to rely on a bar-code only order picking system.  In this situation the fulfillment technology needs to be flexible enough to handle both product with bar codes as well as those without.

A Pick to voice system is built to walk the order picker through a pre-defined operational script; guiding the picker to the correct location while providing a very high level of picking accuracy based on continues challenge/response prompts confirming the product location, the product selection, and the quantity picked.  A well-designed pick to voice process can accomplish this in virtually the same amount of pick time used in a bar code scanning only environment, but with significantly greater flexibility.

We would love to give you a tour of our warehouse and a first hand demonstration of our Pick to Voice technology and processes.  It will give you an entirely new perspective on how flexible a 3PL Fulfillment company can provide scalable and efficient fulfillment even with the most challenging product inventory environments.
