Self-service was supposed to cut costs and speed up lines. For many stores it quietly did the opposite. The good news: the technology to fix it already exists, and it is better than ever.

Somewhere in your warehouse right now, a pallet is sitting in the wrong aisle. An order is marked “in stock” that is not. A shipment is waiting on a dock that no one has scanned in three hours. None of it shows up on a screen, and that is exactly the problem. These are blind […]
You didn’t lose money on the warehouse. You didn’t lose it on the long-haul truck. You lost it in the last three miles.
