Logistics and Supply Chain
For years, we have believed that the secret to same day delivery was simply "more warehouses" or "more drivers", but reality is something different. The biggest barrier isn't physical infrastructure, rather it's a math problem.
Currently, only organizations with vast computing resources can solve complex routing puzzles that make ultra-fast delivery profitable, and now that is about to change.
The breakthrough won't come from building more roads, but from Quantum Routing.
This technology takes “Salesman Problem” as a mathematical problem statement and solve it in seconds rather than taking it hours to get resolved.
Traditional computing handles the problem statements one after another option, taking one primary problem and checking the possibility after that going with another option.
When it adds new orders, check routes, weather and fuel cost, the calculation becomes too complex, and the system had to settle for a sub optimal route. But when coming up with Quantum processor they take all such possibilities once at a time and find the best possible and fastest path for thousands of vehicles instantly.
Below is the list of areas where this is going to have an immediate impact:
1. Dynamic Route Optimization: The last mile accounts for a massive portion of total shipping costs. Quantum algorithms can reroute drivers in real-time based on live data, such as sudden road closures or a new priority order, without disrupting the rest of the schedule.
2. Warehouse Picking Efficiency: Before a package hits the truck, it must be found. Quantum optimization calculates the perfect path for a human picker or a robot to grab dozens of items without a single step of backtracking.
This reduces "travel time" within the warehouse, thus allowing orders to leave the facility minutes after they are placed.
3. Network Design and Hub Locations: Quantum computing helps companies decide exactly where to place distribution centers. By analyzing millions of historical order data points, it can predict where demand will spike and suggest optimal inventory placement before the orders are even placed.
We help logistics and supply chain organizations move past the hype and start pilot testing quantum routing today. Quantum computers will eventually reinvent global encryption, but they can optimize your delivery routes right now.
For years, we have seen the logistics industry struggle with the tradeoff between speed and cost. We provide a bridge between complex quantum algorithms and existing dispatch software.
From warehouse optimization to last-mile delivery, we support enterprises in becoming quantum ready, helping you build a supply chain that is faster, cheaper, and smarter.
