Stop Managing Labor. Start Managing Throughput.
Most distribution operations are bleeding throughput they can't account for.
Array connects individual performance to real output data—so you can control results, not just headcount.
Distribution Productivity—Measured and Proven
100%+
Productivity gains in high-volume DC environments
50%
Reduction in time-to-fill for hourly roles
Reduction
Significant turnover reduction during peak periods
Built for 1PL & 3PL Distribution Environments
If You're Running a Distribution Operation, You're Likely Dealing With This
Throughput swings shift-to-shift—and you can't explain why- Some pickers and packers consistently outperform others, but you can't quantify it
- Supervisors spend time chasing inconsistency instead of driving output
- Labor costs climb without corresponding improvements in units processed
- Turnover spikes every time volume surges—just when you need stability most
This isn't a headcount problem. It's a visibility problem.
Distribution Runs on a False Assumption
Distribution Runs on a False Assumption
You're managing labor as if bodies equal boxes moved.
They don't—and that gap is costing you every shift.
The Assumption
You pay for hours →
Hours move freight
The Reality
Output per worker varies dramatically—shift to shift
Same wage ≠ same units processed
Variability hides inside your floor
The Consequence
Overstaffing to hit SLAs
Missed client commitments
Supervisor burnout and floor chaos
The Real Problem: You Can't See Worker-Level Output
You optimize your network precisely—but not the people running it.
Distribution systems are optimized for:
Parcel volume and routing
Dock-to-stock cycle times
Inventory accuracy
But not for:
Individual picker/packer performance
Worker-level output variance
Shift-by-shift productivity control
Result:
There is no clear link between effort and throughput—so performance can't be controlled.
If you can't measure it, you can't improve it.
A New System for Distribution Performance
A New System for Distribution Performance
Array gives you visibility and control over worker-level throughput.
We don't supply labor. We build performance systems.
Talent
Precision-fit workers selected for throughput
Technology
Real-time work and output data by worker
Operations
On-site coordination and SLA execution
Throughput—not headcount—becomes the unit of management.
How We Drive Distribution Performance
Identify
Find High-Throughput Talent
We don't just fill roles—we identify individuals with the highest potential output using behavioral data and precision-fit assessment built for distribution environments.
Amplify
Increase Daily Output
We align incentives, coaching, and real-time feedback to drive measurable improvements in units processed per worker, per shift.
Coordinate
Ensure Predictable Execution
We orchestrate scheduling, workflows, and on-site management to eliminate the variability that kills SLA performance.
Technology That Actually Changes Outcomes
Most systems track movement. Array improves output.
- Real-time throughput visibility by worker and shift
- Individual output tracking across pick, pack, and load
- Dynamic goals and performance-based rewards
- Integrated workforce management from hire to floor
Technology amplifies people—it doesn't replace them.
Why Traditional Approaches Fall Short
Approach | Limitation | Array |
|---|---|---|
Staffing agency | Supplies bodies, not throughput | Controls talent + system + execution |
WMS / software | Measures movement, doesn't control output | |
Internal ops team | Lacks real-time worker-level visibility |
Distribution Performance Is a System Problem
When you connect worker → shift → units processed,
You gain control over performance.
Until then, you're managing variability—not results.
