Breathe Technologies partners with Strongpoint ALS on a major AutoStore automation project, delivering WES-led integration to support scalable e-commerce fulfilment.
Breathe Technologies has secured its first contract in partnership with Strongpoint ALS, marking a positive start to 2026 and a significant project award for the business.
The project forms part of a major automation programme for a global e-commerce retailer and will see Breathe deliver a significant portion of the overall system, focused on software and automation integration.
The solution represents a complex, fulfilment environment combining multiple automated and manual processes, from Autostore integration to automated packing processes, through to despatch. It has been designed to support increasing order volumes while maintaining consistently high service levels.
It builds on Breathe Technologies previous experience of automating the transport of goods from the Autostore at Roman to an automated packing line – watch our case study
Breathe’s Warehouse Execution Software intelligently orchestrates automated and manual processes across the operation, enabling faster, more predictable inbound handling, inventory management and order processing. This helps ensure accurate, on-time delivery to end customers — a critical factor in maintaining competitiveness in the e-commerce market.
Flexibility and scalability are core elements and the system architecture allows for pre-planned, phased expansion. Additional automation technologies and increased capacity can be added at a later date as demand grows.
The project highlights Breathe Technologies’ strengths in software-led automation integration, particularly within e-commerce environments where system complexity and reliability are critical. It also reflects the role of execution-layer software in unlocking the full value of warehouse automation investments.
“This project is an important milestone in our partnership with Strongpoint ALS and reflects the strong working relationship between our teams. By combining Strongpoint’s automation platforms with our execution software and automation integration capabilities, we’re able to deliver highly effective fulfilment solutions that support operational performance, resilience and long-term return on investment” Simon Allen, Managing Director, Breathe Technologies.
