Better Together: Tompkins Solutions and MSI Automate Announce Business Combination

In today’s fast-moving and increasingly complex supply chain environment, companies are facing more pressure than ever to improve efficiency, reduce costs, and meet rising customer expectations. From labor shortages and capacity constraints to the growing need for automation, businesses are seeking smarter solutions to address these challenges.

That’s why we are excited to share that today we announced the business combination of Tompkins Solutions and MSI Automate.  We believe this is a powerful combination that will help our collective customers thrive in this demanding landscape.

By joining forces, we are creating a company that brings together the best of both worlds: Tompkins Solutions’ extensive expertise in supply chain consulting, material handling integration, control systems software and engineering, and managed services and support, with MSI Automate’s proven advanced warehouse automation solutions, including robotics, conveyor systems, and software-driven fulfillment technologies.  Together, we will offer a comprehensive suite of solutions that will empower businesses to streamline their operations to drive better performance.  We think Richard Lanpheare, President of MSI Automate, stated it best when he said, “We are thrilled to join forces with Tompkins Solutions. Our combined capabilities will allow us to deliver even more powerful and innovative automation solutions to customers worldwide. This partnership will not only expand our technology offerings but also enable us to provide seamless, scalable solutions that meet the evolving needs of modern supply chains.”

We are particularly excited about the innovation opportunities this business combination creates.  We recently announced our partnership with Agility Robotics and see many more partnership and innovation opportunities in the near term.  In fact, our combined team will be at ProMat 2025 next week – so let’s meet and discuss the potential!  From advanced robotics to intelligent software solutions, we are committed to pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in warehouse automation.

As we move forward with our business combination, our top priority is – as always – customer and partner success.  We firmly believe that this combination makes us “better together” –  and better equipped to help our customers and partners succeed.
