<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">We are happy to announce the publication of our new handbook entitled “<b>Warehousing 5.0 - Managing the transition from techno-focused to human-value-centric intralogistics</b>”.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Warehouses are no longer just simple storerooms, but instead central pillars of business success with a strong impact on the efficiency of supply chains. However, warehouse managers continue to struggle with improving
operational performance and cutting costs, and in the ongoing transition to smart warehouses, constantly new challenges, such as labor shortages and sustainability requirements, arise. The concept of Warehousing 5.0 guides managers in addressing these challenges
by harnessing the benefits of automated and digitally supported warehousing processes enabled by Industry 4.0 technologies. This book summarizes the most recent research results on Warehousing 5.0 and supports managers in successfully transforming their warehousing
processes and management concepts.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Written by experts in the field, the book offers a comprehensive thematic perspective of the concept of Warehousing 5.0, with a focus on practical insights and guidance for managers. Key topics covered in this book include:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
