Accelerate Internship Opportunities

AIC is a Montreal based company involved in software development. The major business of AIC comes from the acquisition of a commercial Warehouse Management System that is currently used by a number of 3PL warehouses that operate for clients like Unilever and Coca Cola. We begin by focusing on a known 1.5M square foot 3PL warehouse in Burlington (NJ) operated for a number of different clients and product groups. Different product groups pose significant constraints on the pick route given that apparel, electronics, food and hazardous materials have very different constraints on how they are to be received, stored and then picked, packed and shipped. We first examine the optimization of picking routes for a single picker given a specific simulated warehouse layout.
