  • The Lifetime Approach to Maintenance

    The Lifetime Approach to Maintenance
    May 20 2026
    In this episode of The Automation Journey, we take a big-picture look at the maintenance and logistics services that automated warehouses need. Mike Elliott (Director of Lifetime Services North America) and Jared Call (LTS Business Development Manager) sit down with Marissa Dierlam to discuss from before go-live to twenty years on what to do and consider when it comes to keeping your site running. It may be tempting to let automated material handling services do their thing with minimal care and support, but Mike and Jared share how long-term thinking and regular investments into maintenance prolong the lifetime of warehouse automation and lead to a smaller total cost of ownership. They also stress the importance of working with a partner you trust and have open, transparent communication with. Learn more about TGW's Lifetime Services.

    The New Grocery Normal
    May 6 2026
    In this podcast episode, Nathan Wolf and Michael Schedlbauer share their insights and expertise, based on recent research and customer conversations, into what's happening in the world of grocery logistics. Starting with the different forces that have shaped the grocery industry in the last few years, they then dive deep into the different economic, consumer behavior, and technological trends at play. In a low-margin and high-pressure environment, capital investments into supply chain may sound risky, but Nathan and Michael share how warehouse automation can actually be a strategic lever that allows grocery businesses to get out of "react mode" and become more resilient to whatever trends lie ahead.

  • Smarter, Safer Facilities

    Smarter, Safer Facilities
    Apr 15 2026
    In this episode of The Automation Journey, Ryan Chesterfield (Founder and CEO of Auto-FX and Auto-FC) joins Meagan Gauthier (TGW Logistics) and host Marissa Dierlam for a conversation about what it really takes to build smarter, safer warehouse facilities. While warehouse automation is often discussed through the lens of throughput, labor efficiency, and cost reduction, worker safety is just as critical—and far more strategic than many realize. Together, they explore the real safety risks facing warehouses today, from manual material handling and forklift interactions to training gaps, turnover, and pressure to hit KPIs. Learn how thoughtfully designed automation (like ergonomic picking workstations) combined with smarter software, machine learning, and predictive maintenance can reduce safety risks while improving worker retention, consistency, and performance. Imagine a future for your facility where safety isn't a compliance checkbox or a regular fire to fight—and instead is a strategic lever addressed on a systems level. Connect with Ryan on LinkedIn.
