will present LFS.timesquare, a
smart Logistics Control Tower that
can integrate all logistics data from
the past (BI), present (Control)
and future (Predictive). Users can
make decisions for future logistics
processes based on this information.
For example, you can plan and
optimize bin assignment in the
warehouse in advance with market
basket analyses and with route and
picking routes. LFS.timesquare
clearly shows that control desk
systems are increasingly developing
into forward-thinking systems that
learn from past experience and
support workers with proactive
suggestions. EPG is already
integrating artificial intelligence (AI)
components into LFS.timesquare.

logistics data and external data (e.g.
weather forecasts) to make accurate
forecasts for future orders. Such
forecasting is possible thanks to the
close technical integration of LFS.

Guided tour of the exhibition stand
At LogiMAT, EPG offers guided tours
of the exhibition stand across the
different sections with solutions and
innovations in the field of intralogistics.
These include LFS.dock for intelligent
dock management, which provides
accurate planning, control and
optimization of incoming and outgoing
freight terminal traffic. EPG will also
have a resource management module
