OPEX® Corporation Introduces Cortex® Sort-to-Order™ Integrated Software Suite to Streamline Order Fulfillment
Article content MOORESTOWN, N.J. — OPEX® Corporation, a global leader in Next Generation Automation providing innovative solutions for warehouse, document and mail automation, is announcing the launch of its Cortex® Sort-to-Order™ (S2O) software suite, designed to provide a higher level of functionality for the company's sortation solutions. This powerful software suite unlocks the full order management capabilities of OPEX's Sure Sort® and Sure Sort® X warehouse automation systems—optimizing bin assignments, reducing fulfillment time, improving order accuracy, providing real-time analytics, and enabling direct communication with existing warehouse and order management systems. Article content 'We're continuously looking to improve upon our portfolio of offerings, and Cortex S2O does just that,' said Alex Stevens, President, Warehouse Automation, OPEX. 'This new software suite significantly elevates the operational experience for associates and is a turnkey integrated solution for our customers. It enables businesses to work smarter and faster, and better ensures that every order fulfilled is complete, accurate and on time.' Article content The OPEX Cortex S2O software suite manages workflows and order fulfillment through an intelligent, user-friendly interface, enabling seamless integration between OPEX Sure Sort or OPEX Sure Sort X with any warehouse management system (WMS) or order management system (OMS). The functions and benefits are numerous. Article content With Cortex S2O, each system operator has their own dedicated application, which can run on a wrist computer, enabling operators to easily scan, check out complete orders, and replenish sort destinations by checking in new containers to the sort location. The system intelligently manages bin assignments—strategically splitting and positioning orders to balance machine performance and enabling business logic to be applied to the sort location, while unlocking operator productivity. It includes an override function for manual bin assignments when needed and allows items that cannot be processed on the machine to still be sorted in the automated putwall by virtually moving the inventory. Article content The software suite guides operators through quality audits and exception scenarios, such as missing items. The system takes full control of visual pack-to-light (PTL), directing operators to locations that require attention. With its built-in inspection and proactive quality control audits, businesses can effectively prevent incomplete or incorrect orders, reduce return rates and the associated costs, and improve overall customer satisfaction. Article content 'The comprehensive operational analytics provided by Cortex S2O help organizations gain clear insights into processing efficiency, order dwell times, and operator productivity,' said Monty McVaugh, Head of Product, OPEX. 'Automated reports indicate how well the order and consolidation process is proceeding, providing visibility into time and effort involved. This enables data-driven decision-making that can continuously optimize operations and improve overall warehouse efficiency.' Cortex S2O can simultaneously manage up to 12 sortation systems, and as many as 50 operators and 12 managers. It is multi-language capable, including English, Spanish, Korean and more, and supports multiple communication methods, including database-to-database and flat file transfers. Its scalable design accommodates increased order volume, bin configurations and user access as operations grow. And training is fast and easy, helping to overcome resistance to change and ensure smooth adoption across a multi-generational workforce. Article content Cortex S2O is a great fit for small, medium, and large organizations. It reduces the burden on customer's IT resources to integrate the system, converting an item transactional system to be order processor. Article content The newest addition to OPEX's portfolio of warehouse automation technology joins the company's Cortex® equipment management and order fulfillment software platform, developed to power OPEX's Perfect Pick®, Perfect Pick® HD and Infinity® warehouse automation solutions.
