Consultancy

The Group’s consultancy services provide the blue-print for the solution on a project to be designed and implemented. The Group has dedicated consulting and design teams experienced in various industries including retail operations, architecture, industrial, mechanical and electrical engineering and marketing.

The SDI Group’s consultants are professional managers who have experienced and successfully overcome many of the challenges the Group’s customers are facing today. Our consultants have the benefit and experience of having seen many companies and operations in action within different working environments and across multiple cultures.

We can help to add value to a business in many ways, from simply delivering advice to providing operational analysis and detailed planning and design for project installations.

The Group’s software development resource is strongly represented by three dedicated development centers located in the USA, UK and in Germany.

SDI is continually upgrading and enhancing its systems technology to improve both its product portfolio and service offering to customers. Robust software packages have been designed to run sortation, warehouse control, diagnostics and maintenance systems to the most exacting standards – irrespective of whether they are standalone or if they have been interfaced with customers’ own host systems.

Bespoke and standard software packages designed to run sortation, warehouse control, diagnostics and maintenance procedures either on a stand-alone basis or to complement the implemented hardware handling solutions.

Warehouse management system software has been developed in a modular format, which provides the flexibility for customers to choose individual elements of control for receiving, put-a-way, replenishment, picking, dispatch and stock-counting. Our software also provides customers with KPI information and a full audit trail of stock movements.
The fact that SDI personnel program and maintain software for customers ensures that relationships with these customers continue after installation. This ensures a close customer relationship through ongoing system support and enables the Group to be well positioned for involvement in future projects.
