Our CEO Travis Erridge recently spoke to The Urban Developer’s Phil Bartsch about the growth of warehouse automation in Australia, particularly in retail and grocery. “Supermarkets are leading the way in some of this automation space, just because of the volumes and variety of products – it tends to really suit grocery and helps drive efficiencies throughout the whole supply chain. It’s about creating convenience for the customer. And convenience means complexity in the supply chain, which leads to automation.” “Australia has been leading the way in automated solutions over the last decade, and a big part of that is it’s just an expensive place to do business and move product around.” TMX has worked on significant large-scale automation projects since our inception, most recently with Coles Group on their Automated Distribution Centres (ADCs).

Do you know the purpose of simulation? Our latest research report discovered 60% of supply chain leaders are unsure about simulation, digital twins, and their benefits. We sat down with TMX Senior Director, Nick de Klerk, to discuss why these tools remain unutilised, and to define the differences between them. ?? Simulation answers “what if” questions by testing scenarios with predefined data. ?? Digital twins provide live, real-time insights for continuous optimisation. The takeaway? These tools aren't just buzzwords—they can drive real, tangible improvements, but only if organisations are willing to explore new solutions, seek external expertise, and bridge the knowledge gap.
