Overview
FST Logistics partnered with Lully AI, to optimize warehouse operations without disrupting existing processes. Lully enhanced order release timing and order grouping to reduce travel distance and the number of pick locations while maintaining on-time shipping performance. The implementation was completed in less than a month with no interruption to day-to-day operations.
The results delivered measurable improvements in warehouse efficiency. Order picking times decreased by 6–8 seconds per order line, while reduced travel time improved labor utilization in packing and created a more balanced workflow. These efficiencies enabled FST to process more orders with the same or fewer resources, improve labor planning during both peak and non-peak seasons, and reduce administrative workload through automated order flow.
This partnership has also strengthened FST's ability to scale its e-commerce operations. Faster onboarding for new customers, streamlined pick-to-ship processes, and improved SLA compliance help reduce the risk of costly penalties while supporting continued growth. Lully AI has become a valuable technology partner in helping FST build a more efficient, scalable warehouse operation.
