Description:
In this episode of the #LetsTalkSupplyChain Podcast, we discuss:
[02.13] An introduction to Meagan and her role at TGW Logistics.
“I have an engineering background, so that allows me to connect the operational KPI’s to the financial realities and ROI in a very practical way. I help simplify automation decisions, align stakeholders, and help clients feel more confident in their investment in automation.”
[03.27] An overview of TGW Logistics – who they are, what they do, and how they help their customers.
“We are Team Possible!”
[05.33] The evolution of the warehouse automation industry, the impact of decisions made during the pandemic, and where the industry is now.
“The industry has shifted from an urgency-based automation to a strategy-based automation... We’re seeing companies hone in on smart, scalable, flexible integration and total system performance.”
[08.18] With a 2025 survey revealing that 63% of respondents say their operations are still fully manual, where TGW see organizations on their automation and integration journeys, and the mindset shift that’s starting to move the needle.
[11.20] How leading 3PLs and consultants are reshaping warehouse automation, and the one thing that’s top of mind for all of them.
[14.12] The common gaps TGW sees between expectations and strategy decks and real-world execution, the key focus areas to drive success, and why culture is critical.
“Feedback is a gift!”
[17.26] How integrators can partner more successfully with consultants, the questions they should be asking, and the mindset they should be embracing to drive success.
“It starts with curiosity and neutral alignment.”
[18.50] Who actually influences decisions when multiple stakeholders are involved in transformation projects, from executives and operations to finance and IT, and how teams can navigate that complexity.
“The teams that can translate and speak the language of their stakeholders, those are the teams that win.”
[20.42] Meagan’s approach to building long-term partnerships, not just transactional sales.
[21.56] TGW’s 3D walkthrough that brings typically 2D product demos to life.
[23.18] The potential business impact that can be achieved through successful warehouse automation.
“Warehouse automation, done right, is a competitive advantage, not a cost center.”
