Poiesz Supermarkten | Retail | 4800 | $1.3B | Netherlands | Zetes | ZetesMedea | Logistics Management | 2017 | n/a | In 2017, Poiesz Supermarkten deployed ZetesMedea to support distribution center picking and shop replenishment using ZetesMedea Voice with WMS integration. The implementation is categorized under Logistics Management and targets voice-directed semi batch picking workflows for items ordered by Poiesz shops. ZetesMedea was configured to run voice-directed picking synchronized with the WMS, implementing a semi batch method where pickers assemble one or two pallet loads per pick session. The solution captures pick sequencing, voice prompts, and scan confirmations while the WMS enforces business logic for optimal routing through the distribution centre and for building pallet load structure. Functional capabilities implemented include the voice module orchestration, pick-to-pallet sequencing, and palletization guidance. Integration was delivered via direct WMS integration, with ZetesMedea handling operator interaction and the WMS retaining routing and pallet load rules. Operational scope covered the central distribution centre fulfilling shop orders, affecting warehouse operations, distribution planning, and store replenishment processes. Governance emphasis was on aligning WMS business logic with voice workflows and standardizing operational procedures for consistent pick sequencing and pallet construction. | |
