The article focuses on the role of modern logistics 4.0 technologies and lean management in optimizing ancillary processes in intralogistics. The literature review presents critical aspects of intralogistics, including using autonomous mobile robots (AMR) and the challenges associated with their successful implementation. The article also discusses the concepts of Industry 4.0 and Industry 5.0. highlighting the importance of synergies between workers and advanced technologies. In optimizing logistics processes, the authors emphasize the importance of lean management and tools such as 5S and Kaizen. The authors analyze the research gap related to the organization of auxiliary processes, intralogistics, and the introduction of modern technologies. The lack of good practices and strategies for implementing new technologies for ancillary processes makes this a critical issue for managers and production engineers. The article provides practical strategies that can be implemented in companies. It is a valuable resource for managers seeking to manage intralogistics and effectively improve support processes in manufacturing plants. In summary, the article provides a comprehensive look at modern approaches to optimizing support processes in internal logistics. It highlights the importance of integrating modern logistics technologies with lean management principles, which can increase companies' efficiency and competitiveness.
