Building the Intelligent Warehouse: why digital twins matter now
January 7, 2026
For decades, many warehouses have operated with limited real-time visibility. Manual inventory checks, outdated data, and limited visibility have been accepted as the cost of doing business. But that's changing fast.
The warehouse is no longer just a node in the supply chain. It's becoming an intelligence centre that determines whether operations succeed or fail. Speed and precision aren't optional anymore. They're the baseline. The question is: how do you achieve complete operational visibility without drowning in complexity?
The answer lies in the digital twin.
The visibility problem
Most warehouses still run on incomplete information. Stock counts often happen weekly or monthly. By the time issues surface, they've already caused delays, errors, or lost revenue. Teams spend hours on manual checks that are outdated the moment they're complete.
This isn't sustainable in a market where customer expectations evolve by the quarter, not the year. Warehouses need real-time insight into every pallet, every movement, and every metric that matters. This gap between reality and reported data is where DexoryView comes in.
What a digital twin does
DexoryView creates an interactive digital twin of your warehouse, a live replica that updates continuously with autonomous data capture. It transforms raw operational data into actionable intelligence. Instead of reacting to problems after they happen, you can see them forming and intervene before they impact performance.
The results speak for themselves. Warehouses deploying DexoryView see deployment in days, not months. Return on investment arrives in as little as two months. Some operations report over 200% ROI within six months. These aren't projections, they're outcomes from facilities already running the system.
The digital twin doesn't replace your workforce; it augments it. Staff are freed from repetitive counting and searching tasks, enabling them to focus on process improvement, innovation, and higher-value work that drives the operation forward.

Three pillars of intelligent warehousing
Getting to intelligent operations requires three elements working together: autonomous data capture, digital twin technology, and alignment with operational goals.
Autonomous systems gather data continuously without human intervention. The digital twin processes that data and provides real-time visibility across the entire facility. The outcome is speed, accuracy, and adaptability aligned with the demands of modern supply chains.
This isn't just about implementing new technology. It's about building a culture where intelligence becomes embedded in daily operations. The most successful implementations treat this as an ongoing transformation, not a one-time project.
Why it matters
The shift to intelligent warehousing is underway. Early adopters are already seeing the benefits: faster operations, fewer errors, better use of space, and teams that can focus on strategy rather than firefighting.
For organisations looking to stay competitive, the question isn't whether to adopt digital twin technology. It's how quickly you can deploy it. The warehouses that move now will help define the standard for the next decade of operations.. The ones that wait will spend years catching up.
