Warehouse systems: Calculated. Constructed.
I'm Michael Schulte. I analyze distribution and fulfillment operations with Industrial Engineering and Data Science methods, design conventional and automated material handling systems to meet physical and jurisdictional requirements, and specify the equipment that ends up built. Here's some of what I've learned solving these systems.
- Material Handling
- Automation
- Analytics

Capabilities
Systems design
Conventional material handling and warehouse automation, from concept layout through installed system.
Automation and integration
Pallet shuttle, conveyor, and the equipment selection decisions behind them.
Fire code and permitting
IBC, IFC, NFPA 13, and FM Global, and the jurisdictions that enforce them.
Analytics and simulation
Python, data science, and discrete event simulation used to size and validate a design.
Project leadership
End to end delivery across real estate brokers, jurisdictions, clients, and engineering teams.
Software
Internal tooling built to make the engineering workflow faster and more accurate.
