SVT Robotics Integrates SOFTBOT Platform With Tecsys’ WMS

SVT Robotics announced yesterday that it has worked with supply chain management software company Tecsys to develop and launch a pre-built connector between the Tecsys WMS and SVT's SOFTBOT Platform.

The companies said the integration will provide Tecsys Elite customers much faster deployment and lower complexity without the need for custom code development often involved in multi-system automation and robotics deployments.

Norfolk, Va.-based SVT Robotics said it is an enterprise software company that's revolutionizing robot deployments in the warehousing and manufacturing industries. SVT added that its tech-agnostic, low-code SOFTBOT Platform enables companies to integrate the robots, automation, or IoT devices they need in just days or weeks.

Ontario-based Tecsys said it is a global provider of cloud-based supply chain solutions that equip the borderless enterprise for growth and competitive advantage. It serves customers in the healthcare, distribution and converging commerce industries.

SOFTBOT brings greater interoperability options for Tecsys customers

“A SOFTBOT connector is one of the basic building blocks of the SOFTBOT Platform, like a Rosetta Stone for data information between systems,” said Nick Leonard, senior vice president of product at SVT Robotics.

“With this connector to the Tecsys WMS, we can normalize data from their standard API to create interoperability between Tecsys and other solutions from leading providers. This allows Tecsys customers to rapidly deploy the specific automation they need today with little to no customization,” Leonard added.

“This is a gamechanger for our customers,” said Bill Denbigh, vice president of product marketing at Tecsys. “With a growing and evolving automation market, orchestrating warehouse automation across multiple automation vendors has the potential to quickly become unsupportable.”

"Our collaboration with SVT allows Tecsys to offer a hardware-agnostic warehouse automation solution perfectly tailored to each use case,” Denbigh said. “It liberates them to choose automation that best addresses their warehouse challenges, rather than limiting them to a specific WMS provider’s preferred automation partner.”
