Former Army Specialist Joins Numina Group to Support Customers Deploying Pick Pack Ship Technologies

Increased demand for Numina Group's warehousing distribution automation systems and technologies has prompted the company to expand their engineering department. Their latest engineering hire is former U.S. Army Communications Specialist, Mathias Garcia.

Garcia will be working on software and application support and will be instrumental in providing customer education and training related to Numina’s Pick Execution™ system. He recently graduated from Northern Illinois University with a Bachelor of Science degree in Electrical Engineering after having served two tours of duty in Iraq as a communication specialist.

During his deployment, Garcia provided technical support for field vehicles and hand held communications devices, which were critical to the success of combat and support missions. , Garcia also qualified for top secret clearance for The White House Communications Agency. After his tours, he worked several part time jobs and served in the Army Reserves while pursuing his degree.

"Mathias has proven himself to be a great asset to our country and now he will be an asset to Numina Group. We're eager for him to share his knowledge and experiences with our company and are honored to have an American Hero on our team," noted Dan Hanrahan, President of Numina Group (http://www.numinagroup.com/).

"The Pick Execution™ system is a multimodal voice picking system that is used in order fulfillment and distribution applications. Mathias will be helping our customers learn how to fully utilize their system to improve their order fulfillment time," explained Hanrahan.

Numina Group is a leading supplier of Warehouse Control Systems (WCS) including Pick to Light, Pick, Pack, Ship and advanced multimodal voice picking technology. The company's Pick Execution™ system is used to upgrade from paper or RF based picking to voice-automated picking. The system automates labor-intensive picking and can increase operational productivity by more than 25%. It is most often used in warehouse and manufacturing operations and is the fastest growing voice technology in North America. Requiring zero investment in voice training, operators can get set up and ready to go within an hour, resulting in significant savings in terms of cost and time for the companies that utilize the technology.

"Our Pick Execution™ system customers have seen process improvements of 30% to 150% and improvements in accuracy up to 99.9%. It can support Pick and Put to Light as well as voice picking, allows for hands-free barcode scanning and serial ID capture validation. The system provides alphanumeric operational productivity displays and comes complete with a family of best practice options. It is these best practices that Mathias will be helping our customers understand and utilize," explained Hanranan.
