3PL Innovating at Radial Paving the Path to Automation

Listen in as Deb Williams, Radial’s regional vice president of fulfillment service delivery, discusses why the global 3PL is adopting NextGen technologies. Executive editor Bob Trebilcock hosts.



When it comes to the adoption of cutting-edge technology, it’s a whole new world for 3PLs. Once known as technology-averse, 3PLs have led the way in the adoption of technologies like autonomous mobile robots, piece-picking robots and even drones for inventory management.

You want to know what’s next? Ask a 3PL. Or, in our case, ask Deb Williams, the regional vice president of fulfillment service delivery for Radial, a global 3PL specializing in e-commerce fulfillment. On this episode of Talking Materials Handling, Williams walks us through the technology evolution at Radial, and how her team uncovers and implements tomorrow’s technologies today.

Be sure to listen wherever you get your podcasts, and, read about Radial’s use of piece-picking putwalls.
