AMR fleet-management integration
Fleet management for AMRs and AGVs, assigning tasks, managing routes, charging and shared resources, and exchanging status with warehouse, production and equipment systems so multiple robots operate as one material-flow system.
Overview
A fleet manager sits between business systems and the robots. It creates, prioritises and assigns tasks, applies route and energy rules, reserves shared resources such as narrow aisles, doors, lifts and transfer points, and tracks vehicle status. Alarms, event logs and audit trails record what happened and when. Explicit request, acknowledge, ready, busy, complete, fault and reset states, with timeouts and retries, govern exchanges with conveyors, machines, scanners and call stations.
Authentication, permissions, change control, backups and remote support are part of running the system over time.
Planning fleet management
Define the task sources and priorities, the routes and shared resources, charging strategy, required operator views and alarms, and the interfaces to WMS, MES or ERP and fixed equipment. Agree how performance will be measured, for example flow reliability, operator effort and availability, and who manages changes after go-live.

Frequently asked questions
What does a fleet manager need to connect to?
Typically the systems that create transport tasks, such as WMS, MES or ERP, the fixed equipment robots interact with, such as conveyors, doors, lifts, machines, scanners and call stations, and the robots themselves. Each interface is defined with clear states and timeouts so tasks complete reliably or fail safely.
How is fleet performance measured?
Useful measures include how reliably material flows complete on time, how much operator effort is needed to keep the system running, and vehicle and system availability. Logs from the fleet manager support these measures and help identify bottlenecks, recurring faults and charging constraints.
