As e-commerce continues to reshape the landscape of logistics and fulfillment, businesses are turning to Automated Storage and Retrieval Systems (ASRS) to streamline operations and bolster efficiency. With industry experts like Hunter Senn of HAI Robotics leading the conversation, businesses are seeking clarity on the benefits and implementation of these sophisticated systems.

ASRS are not a monolith; they differ significantly from Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) with their fixed infrastructure designed for optimal high-density storage and specific retrieval applications. From unit-load systems handling pallet-sized loads to mini-load systems for smaller goods, understanding the variety, including shuttle and grid systems, is crucial for selection.

The surge in ASRS adoption is a direct response to the booming e-commerce sector's demands for speed and accuracy. For businesses ready to integrate ASRS, the steps involve a meticulous assessment of needs, infrastructure evaluation for floor quality and space, and a scalable strategy to accommodate future growth.

Businesses must prioritize integration capabilities with existing software, infrastructure readiness, and scalability.

Avoiding common pitfalls in automation is vital. Businesses must prioritize integration capabilities with existing software, infrastructure readiness, and scalability. Investing in training and post-installation support can safeguard against these oversights.

Caterpillar and FieldAI partner on physical AI for jobsites

Caterpillar and FieldAI partner on physical AI for jobsites

Caterpillar announced a collaboration with robotics company FieldAI on Sept. 5, 2026, aimed at bringing physical AI and autonomous systems to construction sites and industrial environments, according to Automation News. The companies plan to combine Caterpillar's operational data and engineering with FieldAI's robot foundation models, along with NVIDIA computing and digital twin tools.

  • 01Caterpillar and FieldAI are combining industrial expertise with AI-enabled robot foundation models for construction and industrial site automation.
  • 02Planned applications include autonomous inspections for safety, digital twins for operational insight, and AI-driven simulation for industrial operations.
  • 03The partnership will use NVIDIA accelerated computing and NVIDIA Omniverse for robot-agnostic autonomy technology across multiple robotic platforms.

Distressed sales are 2% of the housing market, and that should change how contractors plan 2027

Distressed sales are 2% of the housing market, and that should change how contractors plan 2027

Existing home sales fell to 3.98 million in August, but distressed sales remain at just 2% of transactions with prices still rising, signaling an affordability freeze rather than a credit crisis. Residential builders and contractors should plan 2027 capacity around intact homeowner equity, higher inventory creating pre-sale work demand, and regional variations in turnover rather than cutting headcount for a financial downturn.

  • 01Distressed sales at 2% of market (versus roughly one-third during 2008) mean no forced-seller wave or equity destruction, leaving HELOC and cash-out renovation funding intact for contractors
  • 02Supply at 4.9 months and 5.9% year-over-year growth forces sellers to fund pre-sale work on roofs, HVAC, kitchens, and inspections to compete, generating small-ticket trade demand despite lower transaction volume
  • 03Year-to-date sales up 1.6% with 27% all-cash buyers and 15% investor purchases plus strong August wage growth (3.1%) and employment (643,000 jobs since January) support demand in rate-insensitive buyer segments

JE Dunn Adds Power Generation Unit as Data Centers Grow

JE Dunn Adds Power Generation Unit as Data Centers Grow

JE Dunn Construction announced on Aug. 26, 2026 that it created a power generation unit within its advanced technology group and appointed Ryan Wilson to lead it, according to Construction Dive. The move follows a broader rise in power-related construction work tied to data centers, manufacturing and aging infrastructure.

  • 01JE Dunn named Ryan Wilson, a senior project manager with power and industrial experience, as VP and market lead for its new power generation unit.
  • 02Planned U.S. data center projects increased 203% in five months (March to August 2026), from 666 to 2,019, with Virginia leading at 458 planned projects.
  • 03Power work generates roughly 35% to 40% of Canadian firm WSP Global's U.S. revenue, Clayco launched a power and energy unit in March 2026, and Kiewit and Bechtel were selected for a $33 billion Ohio power project.
