The subject of this research is the technology of management of mobile robot groups in the concept of Industry 4.0 and its composition. The purpose of this article is to find ways to implement an effective strategy for building and managing mobile robotic platforms in Warehousing, as a key tool of Lean Production. To achieve this goal, it is necessary to solve the following tasks: to analyze the management of supply chains in Smart Manufacturing, within Industry 4.0 and its impact on achieving the goals of Lean Production; to study the evolution of technologies used in Warehousing in the dynamics of the Industrial Revolution; to analyze the evolution of Warehouse Management Systems (WMS) as one of the most important components on the basis of which the requirements for automation of Warehousing automation in Smart Manufacturing with group management of mobile robotic platforms are implemented and achieved; to compare the impact of the technologies used by Warehousing 4.0 and Warehouse Management Systems on the key indicators of Lean Production. Results: One of the promising ways to achieve the effectiveness of the implementation of Lean Production tools in WMS systems is the use of Collaborative Robot System technology, which makes it possible to ensure a high density of product storage in Warehousing. However, modern mobile robotic platforms have their limitations both in the methods of loading and unloading products, and in the design. Therefore, the authors see the task in improving the design of mobile robotic platforms, which will develop a new intelligent group method of loading and unloading products, increasing the storage density for a variety of goods. Conclusions: The paper compares the impact of Warehousing 4.0 and Warehouse Management Systems on key Lean Production tools, which shows how the introduction of new group management technologies for robotic platforms in Warehousing 4.0 and Warehouse Management Systems (WMS) affects the effectiveness of Lean Production tools such as Heijunka, Just-in-time, 5S. This suggests that the introduction of new models and methods of managing complex warehouses with high density and chaotic storage of products, through the use of mobile robotic autonomous systems, will significantly optimize the process of supply chain management in Smart Manufacturing.
