About
Our Story
Walmart Advanced Systems & Robotics, previously known as Alert Innovation, is now an essential component of the Walmart organization. Founded in 2013, the company focused on revolutionizing the retail industry through cutting-edge automation and robotic technologies.
In 2016, Walmart began collaborating with Alert Innovation on a customized solution for their market fulfillment centers. This partnership led to the successful pilot of the first Alphabot System in 2019 paving the way for Walmart’s acquisition of Alert Innovation in November 2022. Since the acquisition, Walmart has successfully launched several new market fulfillment centers and continues to rapidly scale this new technology at stores nationwide.
Today, our team is growing quickly, and our offices have expanded. We’ve added two new state-of-the-art engineering labs to our space in Andover, MA, and equipped them with the latest machinery, tools and supplies for rapid iterations and innovation. Our highly skilled teams possess a diverse range of engineering capabilities including manufacturing, electrical, hardware, software, and systems engineering.
The team’s expertise is an invaluable asset to Walmart and will continue to drive innovation that propels us forward. Our expertise and passion for innovation will fuel new projects and advanced systems that enhance the customer experience and create a more efficient, sustainable retail environment.
