Global Telecom Provider Overcomes Logistics Challenges with Seamless Automation Equipment Deployment
Customer Goals
The customer needed to bypass the blackbox architecture imposed by their vendors and OEMs to get full visibility into their data and operation.
While deploying new automation equipment to their brown field, the customer needed visibility into productivity & efficiency metrics that were unavailable.
The customer needed to deploy new automated lines rapidly, and optimize their supply chain to react to real-time, real-world conditions outside the warehouse.
Customer Challenges
The customer needed to rapidly test, deploy and scale new automation equipment, seamlessly integrating it with the existing labor force across a legacy and two brand new facilities.
Clip Solution
Clip Connect was deployed on all machines to easily extract data directly, avoiding software API barricades created by vendors to block transparency.
Clip Suite was deployed across their entire warehouse operation to extract data from each robot within multiple cells across multiple lines.
Clip Control was deployed as the universal data integration and control layer for their entire network of warehouses.
Outcome
The customer now gets the real-time data they needed to hold their vendors accountable and better manage their P&L.
The customer has complete visibility and transparency, and can automatically change the behavior of each robotic cell to optimize for real-time events.
The customer can now optimize their entire supply chain, monitoring capacity and output of each facility and rerouting real-time traffic flow between sites.
