End-to-end intralogistics systems design and implementation for distribution centers
WITRON designs, builds, and operates complete material-handling systems for large distribution centers, with an internal stack spanning CAD (AutoCAD, Revit), control software (C#, C++, .NET, WPF), industrial automation (Siemis S7, Beckhoff, EtherCAT), and SAP enterprise systems. The company is migrating from SAP R/3 to S/4HANA while maintaining a hardware-heavy engineering org (109 engineers, 60 ops, 24 manufacturing roles) focused on system commissioning, optimization, and on-site support across North America and Europe. Pain-point clustering around uptime, preventive maintenance, and system reliability signals an operational model where post-sale service and continuous improvement drive customer retention—80% of new projects come from existing customers.
