Primus Partners with Movu Robotics on Automated Design-Build

By integrating automation from the earliest stages of a project, Primus ensures that facility layout, structure and systems are aligned from day one. The result is a more efficient build process, reduced risk and a facility that performs as intended under real operating conditions.
Supply chains are under pressure to move faster, store more and operate with greater precision. Labor constraints, rising throughput demands and the need for flexibility are forcing operators to rethink how facilities are designed and built.
Through a new strategic partnership with Movu Robotics, Primus is expanding its ability to deliver fully integrated automation solutions as part of its design-build approach.
This collaboration brings advanced 4-way shuttle technology directly into facility planning, engineering and construction, eliminating the disconnect that often exists between automation systems and the buildings that house them.
Automation has become essential. But too often, it is introduced too late in the process, creating inefficiencies, redesigns and performance gaps.
By integrating automation from the earliest stages of a project, Primus ensures that facility layout, structure and systems are aligned from day one. The result is a more efficient build process, reduced risk and a facility that performs as intended under real operating conditions.
As highlighted in the partnership announcement, operators today need more than standalone solutions. They need partners who can align strategy, system design and execution into one continuous process.
Movu Robotics brings a new level of flexibility and performance to automated storage.
Their Atlas 4-way pallet shuttle system replaces traditional crane-based systems with a modular approach that allows shuttles to move freely across a grid. This enables:
- Higher storage density
- Increased throughput
- Scalable expansion over time
- Reliable performance across ambient and cold environments
This technology is designed to adapt as operations evolve, giving operators greater control over how their facilities perform today and in the future.
This partnership is not about adding another vendor. It is about removing complexity.
Instead of managing separate teams for automation and construction, clients work with a single partner responsible for both. Primus integrates Movu technology directly into the building itself, aligning structure, systems and automation into one coordinated solution.
As Movu emphasizes in its partner philosophy, success comes from treating partners as strategic collaborators working toward shared outcomes, not disconnected providers.
Primus brings together design, engineering, automation and construction to deliver facilities that are built for real-world performance. The partnership with Movu Robotics strengthens that capability, giving clients access to advanced automation backed by a team that knows how to execute.
