Planning, Consulting & Simulation: Your Vision, Our Engineering — Together, We Validate, Optimize and Deliver.
You are the architects of possibility. Your firm brings decades of accumulated logistics engineering wisdom: deep understanding of material flow dynamics, mastery of simulation tools, and the creative vision to conceive automated warehouses that do not yet exist. Industrial engineers, supply chain consultants, and independent planning offices—you are the trusted advisors who translate a client’s operational challenges into conceptual layouts, throughput calculations, and technology roadmaps.
Yet every brilliant concept eventually confronts a sobering question: Can this be built? Will the proposed rack structure withstand seismic loads? Do the specified shuttle vehicles actually achieve the claimed cycle times under real-world duty cycles? Is the control software architecture compatible with the client’s existing ERP environment? These questions lie outside the traditional scope of planning and consulting practices—yet their answers determine whether a beautiful design becomes a successful installation or a painful lesson.
KINGSHELVING bridges the gap between concept and reality. We are not a planning firm; we are a full-scope ASRS engineering and manufacturing organization with comprehensive in-house capabilities across structural analysis, mechatronic design, control system development, and software engineering. We do not compete with planning and consulting partners—we complete them, providing the technical depth and execution certainty that transforms visionary designs into deliverable, high-performance automated warehouses.
What We Offer to Planning, Consulting & Simulation Partners
Design Validation at Every Fidelity Level
Your conceptual layouts are elegant; our responsibility is to prove they are executable. KINGSHELVING’s engineering team brings decades of applied ASRS experience to the design validation process. We examine your proposed rack configurations against applicable structural codes (GB, FEM, RMI, etc.), verify that specified equipment can achieve required throughput under defined duty cycles, and confirm that proposed system architectures are compatible with real-world electrical, control, and software constraints. We do not validate designs by intuition—we validate them through rigorous engineering analysis, supported by empirical performance data drawn from thousands of installed systems.
Performance Simulation with Real-World Parameters
Simulation is only as valuable as the fidelity of its input parameters. Generic equipment performance curves, published by manufacturers under idealized laboratory conditions, rarely reflect the degradation factors present in continuous 24/7 operation. KINGSHELVING provides our planning partners with authenticated performance data derived from thousands of operating hours in our reference installations—actual cycle times, real reliability statistics, and empirical throughput ceilings under varying SKU profiles and order patterns. When you simulate with KINGSHELVING data, you simulate reality, not theory.
Cost Modeling with Manufacturing Transparency
The gap between budgetary estimate and final bid is a primary source of client anxiety and project friction. KINGSHELVING’s vertical integration—including in-house rack fabrication, crane assembly, and software development—gives us granular visibility into true manufacturing costs. We share this transparency with our planning partners, providing reliable cost guidance during early feasibility phases and stable pricing through project execution. Your clients receive accurate budgets; you receive preserved margins and enhanced credibility.
Bid Phase Technical Support
When your conceptual design proceeds to competitive tendering, KINGSHELVING stands with you. We provide detailed technical specifications, equipment submittals, and performance guarantees that substantiate your design’s viability. Our engineering team supports you through client presentations, owner-architect-engineer meetings, and value engineering workshops—articulating the technical rationale behind your design choices and defending the solution’s integrity against lower-cost, lower-performance alternatives.
Integrated Engineering Handover
A design is only valuable if it can be implemented. KINGSHELVING’s engineering organization is structured to receive your conceptual designs and execute them without reinterpretation. Our structural engineers translate your rack layouts into fabrication-ready drawings; our controls engineers convert your functional specifications into programmable logic; our software team configures our WMS/WCS platforms to match your defined workflows. The handover is not a restart—it is a seamless continuation, preserving your design intent through every phase of detailed engineering and commissioning.
Turnkey Delivery Under Your Brand
For planning and consulting firms seeking to expand their service portfolio without assuming manufacturing or integration risk, KINGSHELVING offers complete white-label execution. We engineer, manufacture, install, and commission the ASRS system—while you maintain the primary relationship with the client. The system is delivered under your brand, backed by our technical warranty. This model enables planning firms to offer true end-to-end solutions, capturing greater project value without diverting focus from their core competency.
What We Expect from Planning, Consulting & Simulation Partners
Data-Driven Design Philosophy
KINGSHELVING engineers are trained to respect the rigor of quantitative analysis. We seek planning partners who share this commitment—who base their layouts on actual SKU profiles, measured throughput requirements, and empirically validated storage density calculations. Aesthetic preferences and generic industry benchmarks are insufficient foundations for million-dollar automation investments. We expect our partners to bring data, not assumptions.
Transparent Collaboration
The most productive planner-integrator relationships are characterized by open, early-stage communication. We seek partners who engage us while the design is still fluid—not after it has been frozen and presented to the client. Early engagement enables us to flag potential constructability issues, recommend cost-optimization opportunities, and align our respective engineering processes before rework becomes expensive. Transparency is not an afterthought; it is a prerequisite for optimal outcomes.
Respect for the Constructability Discipline
Conceptual designers naturally focus on what the system should do. KINGSHELVING’s expertise lies in understanding how it can be built, installed, and commissioned. These perspectives are complementary, not adversarial. We seek planning partners who value the constructability discipline—who recognize that a design which cannot be reliably fabricated and installed is, at best, an incomplete solution. Mutual respect between design and execution teams is the foundation of successful long-term partnerships.
Commitment to Continuous Learning
ASRS technology evolves continuously. New storage densities, faster throughput rates, and expanded application domains emerge each year. KINGSHELVING invests heavily in research and development, and we share these advances with our planning partners through formal training programs, technical bulletins, and collaborative innovation workshops. We expect our partners to be active participants in this knowledge exchange—committed to maintaining their position at the forefront of logistics engineering.
The KINGSHELVING Difference: Why Planning & Consulting Firms Choose Us
Simulation-Grade Performance Data, Not Marketing Specifications
Every ASRS manufacturer publishes cycle time charts and throughput tables. Few can validate these claims against tens of thousands of operating hours across diverse applications. KINGSHELVING’s performance data is empirically derived from our installed base, not theoretically extrapolated from lab prototypes. When our planning partners specify KINGSHELVING equipment, they do so with confidence that actual performance will match simulated projections.
Vertical Integration Without Vertical Competition
Unlike integrators who also manufacture proprietary equipment and favor their own products regardless of fit, KINGSHELVING’s vertical integration is focused on quality control and schedule assurance, not market capture. We do not force our planning partners to specify suboptimal components to preserve internal utilization targets. Our engineering team is free to recommend the optimal technology configuration for each application—whether it employs our equipment or, in rare cases, third-party systems that better serve the client’s unique requirements.
Global Reference Footprint, Local Engineering Access
KINGSHELVING’s installed base spans manufacturing, logistics, cold chain, and specialized industrial sectors across Asia, Europe, and the Americas. This global footprint provides our planning partners with a rich portfolio of reference cases relevant to their clients’ industries and geographic markets. Yet our engineering organization remains accessible—structured to support collaborative design processes, not to erect barriers between our team and our partners.
Long-Term Partnership Orientation
KINGSHELVING measures success in decades, not quarters. Our most valued planning and consulting relationships have endured for more than fifteen years, surviving changes in technology, corporate ownership, and market conditions. We do not view our partners as channels to short-term revenue; we view them as extensions of our own engineering capability. This orientation informs everything from our commercial policies to our technical support protocols.
Your Design. Our Execution. Their Success.
The gap between conceptual brilliance and operational reality is the single greatest risk factor in automated warehouse projects. Designs that neglect constructability generate change orders; specifications based on optimistic performance assumptions produce throughput shortfalls; handovers that lack engineering continuity result in systems that never fully realize their intended capability.
KINGSHELVING exists to close this gap. We do not claim to be planning experts; we claim to be execution experts—specialists in the disciplines that transform conceptual designs into reliable, high-performance automated warehouses. When planning and consulting firms partner with KINGSHELVING, they gain more than a supplier. They gain an extension of their own engineering department, a guardian of their design intent, and a partner equally committed to the client’s success.
You define the vision. We engineer the reality. Together, we deliver the future of automated warehousing.
