Order Picking & Fulfillment
Do pick errors drive up your costs and result in returns? Battling inaccurate inventory prevents you from meeting demand, leading directly to stockouts. Furthermore, your picking speed falls short of what your customers' tight delivery deadlines demand. Worse still, limited real-time traceability leaves you unable to react quickly to quality issues or audits.
Tecnipesa's order preparation solution transforms your warehouse, ensuring that the right product, in the right quantity, reaches your customer precisely when needed.
The Tecnipesa Solution for Order Preparation
Our order preparation solution is built on sound methodology and maximum flexibility. We offer tailored solutions for any operational volume and level of automation, working with the two key automatic identification technologies: barcode and RFID.
- Barcode provides a robust, cost-effective solution for item-level identification, ideal for operations with medium volumes.
- RFID is the key to full automation and real-time control. Through bulk reading (without requiring line of sight), RFID minimises manual intervention during picking and verification, delivering the competitive advantage you need.
Our solution covers and optimises the four core phases of the process:
-
Labelling and Coding
We ensure high-quality product identification with legible, durable labels. -
Order Picking
We guide operators as efficiently as possible to collect the items comprising the order. -
Order Verification and Consolidation
We guarantee that the order is 100% complete and correct before proceeding to packing. -
Packaging and Dispatch
We label secondary packaging for transport and log the goods out of the warehouse.

Key Features for Order Preparation
Works with: RFID Barcode
Damaged labels or poor print quality are the root cause of most scanning errors and subsequent order preparation difficulties.
- Professional Printing We supply top-tier industrial and thermal printers that guarantee the legibility and durability of your barcodes or RFID labels.
- Supplies for Any Material We advise you on and supply the right labels and thermal transfer ribbons for your specific application (chemical resistance, extreme temperatures, abrasion), ensuring labels remain legible throughout the product lifecycle.
Order preparation errors often stem from operator discomfort or tool limitations.
- Hands-Free Picking We provide ergonomic scanners and terminals worn on the wrist (wearables) or finger (ring scanners). This frees operators' hands to handle products and packaging without interruption. Alternatively, voice picking is an exceptional system that guides operators via headsets while keeping their hands free at all times, accelerating the process.
- Vehicle-Mounted Computers For forklift-intensive warehouses, we supply rugged vehicle-mounted computers, turning the truck into a mobile workstation for location and inventory management.
Miscounting or confusing references is a common challenge. We combat this with active guidance and verification solutions.
- Guided Systems Voice picking indicates the exact product to pick, the required quantity, and the destination location at every step. This guided process reduces omission or excess errors to near zero.
- Automated Verification with Brave + Connect (RFID only): Using RFID portals positioned at strategic points across the warehouse, we automatically control every case or pallet passing through the gateway. The system verifies in real time whether all requested items are present, confirming whether the order is complete or if any elements are missing.
If your process requires printing shipping labels at the end of the line or during loading, we provide mobile printers that synchronise with your WMS or ERP, ensuring the final packaging receives the correct label.
A solution is only efficient when all its component equipment functions correctly.
Proactive Maintenance Services We prevent issues arising from a lack of terminal, scanner, or printer maintenance. Our technical team ensures the updates and proper operation of your hardware and software, guaranteeing operational continuity and minimising downtime.
“We have been working closely with Tecnipesa for many years, and they have consistently met the agreed delivery deadlines while maintaining a high standard of product quality for our plants in both Spain and Portugal. Their service and customer support have always been first-class.”
Solutions for Specific Sector Challenges
Retail and E-Commerce Fulfilment
Extreme speed for single-line order preparation.
Recommended Solution: Combination of wearable computers and voice picking across large picking areas. Hands-free ergonomics are key to speed. In the consolidation zone, machine vision verifies that the item count in the box matches the order record, accelerating packing.

Food and Beverage
Batch and expiry date traceability in refrigerated environments.

Recommended Solution: Use of handheld computers and IP-certified PDAs (resistant to moisture/cold). Barcode scanning is integrated for batch and expiry date validation directly within the picking software. This ensures food and pharmaceutical safety regulations are strictly met prior to dispatch, even in harsh conditions.
