Corporate navigation Tharsus Main navigation Search Menu Home Our projects Our projects Ocado: An appetite to disrupt Tharsus originally partnered with Ocado to support with the design of the warehouse robots which would run on the Ocado Smart Platform (OSP). Our OEDM business model- a unique collaborative manufacturing and iterative design and prototyping service saw us work with Ocado from this design phase through to scale manufacture. We continue to manufacture Ocado OSP ‘bots to date. OSP has enabled Ocado to not only disrupt the UK grocery market through faster online deliveries, but also, through sale of this smart robotic platform to other retailers across the globe, effectively transition from a grocery to a multi- billion pound technology business in its own right.
