Discover how a leading cold storage company enhanced their forklift operations and reduced costs using ACT’s Battview system, optimizing existing resources instead of expanding their fleet.
In the high-stakes environment of logistics and cold storage warehousing, operational efficiency and reliability are the linchpins of success. Faced with the challenge of scaling up to meet increasing demand, a leading client of Advanced Charging Technologies (ACT) — a top-three entity in the cold storage domain — contemplated the expansion of their forklift fleet. This case study reveals how the deployment of ACT’s Battview system revolutionized the client’s battery fleet management, yielding substantial operational improvements and cost savings.
Initially, the client noticed an increase in activity that seemingly justified the procurement of additional forklifts. Seeking a more economical alternative, they consulted with ACT, an established provider of industrial battery monitoring and management solutions.
The client was confronted with the necessity to enhance operational capacity effectively while minimizing the financial impact of additional capital investment. Moreover, there was a need to accurately diagnose and remedy inefficiencies within the existing battery management system.
In response, ACT proposed the Battview system, a premier industrial battery monitoring solution engineered to refine efficiency through real-time data management and enriched insights into battery utilization. Battview’s integral features include:
The integration of Battview revealed a startling revelation: the overall battery fleet utilization stood at a meager 30%. This data indicated a significant underutilization of the existing fleet, negating the initial assumption of needing additional forklifts.
With Battview’s data analysis, the client was able to:
These strategic enhancements significantly boosted operational efficiency, allowing the client to manage the increased workload without purchasing new forklifts.
A deeper analysis of the Battview data indicated substantial improvements in battery utilization at critical sites:
The case of Battview serves as a powerful testament to the value of smart technology and data analytics in uncovering and addressing operational inefficiencies. By electing to analyze and optimize existing resources, the client sidestepped substantial capital investments and enhanced operational effectiveness. This success story highlights the critical role of informed decision-making and showcases the transformative impact of technological innovation on business operations.
