The challenge
Scanners dropped connection in the back third of a 180,000-square-foot building, forcing staff to walk to the office to sync picks. Overtime was climbing and a major retail customer had flagged accuracy.
What we did
- Performed a predictive and on-site wireless survey around racking height and forklift traffic
- Installed industrial access points with a segmented network for scanners, cameras and office systems
- Added a second internet carrier with automatic failover
- Documented the entire network and trained the warehouse lead on basic troubleshooting
Results
Full-coverage Wi-Fi verified at every pick location
Overtime tied to re-syncing eliminated
