There are many challenges when trying to communicate with warehouse staff and operations. Not only can it be noisy and distracting, your workers might also have to switch between multiple devices to be able to communicate, track inventory, and radio drivers. These problems can lead to unnecessary delays and slowed productivity, which will ultimately impact your end customer satisfaction. If this sounds like your warehouse, don’t worry, this isn’t just happening to you. In fact, 75% of warehouses report that the frequency of technology failures is staying the same or increasing. 

To combat this, Advanced Automation recommends enhancing workflows and location visibility with streamlined technologies such as Zebra’s Workforce Connect, which fosters collaboration, increases productivity, and raises service to new heights with automated measures to protect the frontline.
