Let’s discuss this in a no-obligation initial consultation:
WarehousePilot ExecuteControl forklift processes precisely rather than coordinating them manually.
WarehousePilot EXECUTE: More than just a forklift guidance system
Where traditional automation ends, iFD WarehousePilot EXECUTE ensures efficient and transparent material transport. The system coordinates vehicle-based transport throughout the entire organisation – from goods-in and the warehouse to production and dispatch.
Centralise the management of vehicle transport
iFD WarehousePilot EXECUTE is far more than a traditional forklift guidance system. The solution takes over the central control of vehicle-based transport wherever materials are moved using forklift trucks, tugger trains or automated guided vehicles (AGVs). All transport orders are managed centrally and dynamically allocated to available vehicles. Via mobile client stations, drivers receive their orders directly from the system and are guided through the logistics process with route and order optimisation. WarehousePilot EXECUTE integrates all relevant process points – including goods receipts, picking areas, manual storage zones, dispatch areas and production areas. The consistent digitalisation of process transitions completely eliminates paper-based control. Transport orders are issued and confirmed digitally, enabling forklift transport to be handled significantly more efficiently and with greater process reliability.
Greater efficiency in internal logistics
WarehousePilot EXECUTE ensures that shipments are carried out at the right time using the appropriate vehicle. This helps to stabilise material flows and make optimal use of logistical resources.
Companies benefit from, among other things:
• Faster response to urgent and priority orders
• Shorter lead times within logistics processes
• Avoidance of transport bottlenecks and waiting times
• Improved delivery reliability for customers and production
Transparency across all shipments
All transport activities are fully documented in the system. WarehousePilot EXECUTE maintains detailed logs of all changes to master and transaction data and records every step of the transport process chronologically. Based on this data, the system generates meaningful statistics and reports that enable a transparent analysis of internal transport operations. The resulting database helps companies to further optimise material flows, resource utilisation and empties management in a targeted manner.
Transparency comes from clear storage logic – not from additional masks.
Efficient forklift control for complex intralogistics processes
For iFD, the forklift guidance system is not an isolated tool, but an integral part of the overall intralogistics framework. We start by analysing the current situation: How do the vehicles operate today? What tasks do they perform? What interfaces are in place?
Building on this, we develop a flexible control architecture that distributes orders centrally, dynamically prioritises tasks and actively supports drivers.
Our middleware processes driving commands and status messages independently of the system – even in mixed fleets comprising vehicles from different manufacturers. Interfaces to warehouse management and material flow control are seamlessly integrated.

Additional modules and systemsFunctional enhancements
Depending on the project requirements, additional modules are integrated – for example, for narrow-aisle control, route optimisation or real-time planning. All extensions follow a common data and process logic.
Warehouse Pilot
The iFD Warehouse Pilot combineswarehouse management with material flow control and forklift guidance systems to realise its full potential.
The platform combines warehouse management, material flow control and forklift guidance into a single, integrated control solution. Instead of isolated tools, this creates a fully integrated system.

iFD: An Overview of the Intralogistics Company
iFD develops and implements integrated warehouse management systems (WMS) for industrial and logistics companies. The focus is on modernising and further developing existing intralogistics structures within industrial facilities.
Our solutions combine warehouse management, material flow control and forklift guidance systems within an integrated platform architecture.
This results in scalable, retrofittable systems that remain operational in the long term and can structurally accommodate growing requirements.
