Description (French)
À l'heure actuelle, des systèmes de casiers font leur apparition dans diverses industries, comme les casiers à colis, les casiers de ramassage en magasin et les casiers pour appareils informatiques. En fait, Amazon à elle seule s'attend à déployer plus de 40 000 casiers en Amérique du Nord. Les lacunes des systèmes de casiers existants comprennent la possibilité de gérer la capacité dans des espaces limités et diverses autres limitations logicielles et d'intégration. Signifi a besoin d'aide pour développer un système de casiers plus innovant appelé Advance BOPIS Solution (ABS). Conçu pour traiter des produits dans différents secteurs verticaux du commerce de détail afin d'atténuer les manques actuels dans l'industrie. Signifi investira dans de nouveaux talents locaux et internes, de nouveaux emplois dans la fabrication et augmentera considérablement ses ventes à l'exportation.
