Located in upstate New York, Saratoga Eagle is primarily an Anheuser-Busch wholesaler that serves over 200 partners. With rising diesel fuel and labor costs cutting into their profit margins, they were looking for ways to run their operations more efficiently and decrease costs. Moving into a new facility provided an opportunity to implement Honeywell Voice and create consistency among their picking processes. Even though the implementation took place during their busiest time of the year, they were able to increase accuracy, reduce training times, and grow their bottom line.

Supermercados Covirán, the second-largest food distributor in Spain, has been a cooperative of food retailers servicing Spain, Portugal and surrounding areas since 1961. The cooperative needed a solution to help them make the successful transition from primarily a cash-and-carry operating model to distribution. With a logistics partner, the co-op explored more efficient picking support technologies and chose Honeywell Voice and its rugged and ergonomic headsets, microphones and intelligent voice synthesizers. The move enabled its DC workers to enjoy hands-free, eyes-free picking while providing the technology infrastructure to support the company’s new business model.

KBR Wyle provides program management, kitting, warehouse management and supply chain services for Hill Air Force Base in Utah. After dealing with the limitations of a paper-based maintenance and inspection system to complete its induction processes, the provider made the productivity leap to Honeywell Voice. By doing so, they streamlined their entire induction process by guiding technicians step-by-step from beginning to end. Watch how they were able to increase their number of inspections and analyze real-time data.

As the first company in the European aviation sector, Lufthansa Technik AG has optimized the maintenance process of auxiliary power units (APUs) using the Honeywell Voice maintenance and inspection solution. Their process requires technicians to assess the external conditions of transport containers and components, and then record their findings in the primary diagnostics. The same process applies to the entire disassembly of each part of the APU, including part numbers. Before installing Honeywell Voice, the process required two mechanics to share the duty of manually checking diagnosis and inputting data into a computer. See how mechanics can now experience the hands-free, eyes-free efficiencies of Honeywell Voice, allowing them to concentrate fully on the task at hand and document activities in real time.

The aerospace industry relies on meticulous maintenance and inspection processes to ensure flight safety and meet regulatory compliance. Take an inside look at how Honeywell Voice enables voice-directed efficiencies with step-by-step instructions to help technicians maintain process rigor and automate record keeping in the aerospace industry.

Brakes is a leading supplier to the catering industry, providing ambient, chilled and frozen products across the U.K., France and Sweden. The company services over 30,000 deliveries a day in the U.K. alone and offers its customers more than 15,000 different product lines. With the company experiencing a period of expansion and acquisition, it turned to Honeywell Voice and Voiteq to work closely with their team and deliver a voice-directed solution to support that growth. See how Brakes’ leadership and operations teams have come to rely on the efficiencies enabled by Honeywell Voice and Voiteq.

Just what is supply chain "digitization" anyway? And how far along are companies in adapting to it? Two PITT OHIO executives - CFO and CIO Scott Sullivan, and CMO and EVP Geoff Muessig, engage in a lively discussion about the promise and reality of the digital supply chain.
