In future distribution centers, RFID, barcodes, and voice recognition (VR) systems must work seamlessly together to achieve a company’s supply chain management goals. Each form of automatic identification data collection has warehouse tasks for which it is specifically designed to improve efficiencies. Companies need to evaluate voice recognition technology’s potential beneficial role in their warehouse operations.

Voice technology in your warehouse

• Warehouse workers receive work assignments and communicate progress through voice.
• Tasks are generated by the SAP solution and translated into spoken commands that workers hear via a headset attached to a wearable mobile computer.
• Workers responses are translated back into data and sent to SAP R/3 via a wireless network in a real-time working environment.

PEAK Technologies will review your warehouse operations to determine the correct and most efficient technology (RFID, Barcodes and/or Voice Recognition) to reach your supply chain management goals.

Voice recognition benefits

• Fewer data collection mistakes.
• Reduced returns.
• More accurate inventory counts.
• Increased overall warehouse productivity.

Companies using this voice-directed technology have seen a rise in productivity ranging from an incremental 10% to 30%, inventory accuracy rates above 99.9%, and paybacks of less than 12 months in some cases.
