This metric calculates the financial benefit of your automation investment relative to its cost. It helps determine how quickly the automation pays for itself and the long-term profitability it generates. A higher ROI indicates a more successful and financially beneficial automation project.
Measures the increase in the volume of goods processed (e.g., items picked, orders shipped, units moved) within a given timeframe after automation implementation. It directly reflects how automation enhances the speed and capacity of your operations.
Quantifies the decrease in labor expenses directly attributable to the automation. This includes reductions in wages, benefits, and overtime due to fewer manual tasks or a more efficient workforce. It highlights the operational savings achieved.
Tracks the percentage of orders fulfilled correctly without errors (e.g., wrong item, wrong quantity, damaged goods). Automation, especially in picking and sorting, often significantly improves accuracy, leading to fewer returns, reduced rework, and higher customer satisfaction.
Assesses how effectively your warehouse space is being used after automation. Automated storage and retrieval systems (AS/RS) or robotic solutions can often achieve higher storage density, reducing the need for physical expansion.
While automation brings benefits, it also introduces maintenance requirements. This metric tracks the cost of maintaining automated systems relative to the volume of output they produce. It helps assess the operational expenditure associated with keeping the automated systems running efficiently.
