Guidance for SYNAOS Intralogistics Management Platform on AWS

Overview

This Guidance demonstrates how to revolutionize manufacturing and logistics operations using SYNAOS Intralogistics Platform on AWS, a cloud-native solution that orchestrates and optimizes end-to-end material flow management across all vehicle types and resources including manual forklifts, AGVs, AMRs, mixed fleets, and human operators. By intelligently coordinating diverse operational resources through demand-driven job assignment, the solution helps manufacturers and logistics companies achieve unprecedented operational efficiency and flexibility. Through the innovative "Material Need" approach and advanced optimization algorithms, the solution enables dynamic resource allocation and real-time decision making across entire intralogistics ecosystems. This future-ready platform helps organizations maximize asset utilization, reduce operational costs, and achieve scalable growth through intelligent automation and data-driven insights.

Benefits

    Eliminate disparate middleware systems by integrating AGVs, AMRs, forklifts, and human operators onto a single platform running on Amazon EKS across multiple availability zones for high availability and scalability. SYNAOS's vendor-independent VDA 5050 native architecture ensures interoperability with any manufacturer while protecting against vendor lock-in. Control vehicles from multiple manufacturers, manage automated and manual operations from one system, and flexibly adjust operations based on demand and seasonal requirements.

    Transform operations by putting material demand at the center and orchestrates all intralogistics processes accordingly. SYNAOS creates intelligent Intralogistics Jobs that assign tasks to the most suitable resources using smart resource allocation and optimization that analyzes vehicle availability, location, load capacity, and order priorities. The platform's traffic management system proactively prevents bottlenecks, coordinates automated and manual processes and enables manual intervention capabilities for maximum operational flexibility.

    Seamlessly integrate with existing MES, WMS, and ERP systems through Amazon API Gateway while leveraging Amazon Aurora for high-performance, scalable database operations. Connect a wide range of shopfloor assets including gates, traffic lights, conveyors, sensors, and automated storage systems into the unified SYNAOS platform. Leverage comprehensive analytics with Amazon S3 data storage, Amazon SageMaker for ML insights, and Amazon QuickSight for efficiency reporting, with intuitive apps for forklift drivers and clear dashboards for supervisors and shopfloor managers to monitor all transport processes.
