The challenges surrounding safety and operational efficiency in the supply chain industry are ever-present. With forklifts and personnel sharing the same working space, the risk of accidents and fatalities remains high. Therefore, the necessity for innovative solutions that ensure everyone’s safety is mandatory, and a bonus that these solutions also optimise operations at the same time.
Incidents in the industry serve as stark and timely reminders of the potential hazards associated with supply chain operations. For instance, the recent tragic accident involving a forklift operator in Australia underscores the critical need for stringent safety measures.
Despite the operator having a high-risk work license and recent safety training, an unfortunate lapse resulted in a fatal outcome. This illustrates the need for robust safety protocols and advanced technology to prevent such accidents.
At RCT, safety is our top priority. Our innovative technology is versatile and can be installed on any machine, regardless of make or model. Forklift-related incidents can be a thing of the past with some of the following solutions:
RCT’s SmarTrack Fleet Management system is essential in offering a comprehensive approach mitigating risks. From monitoring, controlling, and optimising the use of forklifts, it integrates real-time data and advanced analytics to provide operators with invaluable insights into each forklift’s performance and status. This enhances operational efficiency and enables proactive maintenance, reducing the likelihood of equipment failure and accidents.
One of the most significant advancements in supply chain safety is the implementation of RCT’s Pedestrian Alert Systems (PAS). Designed to detect and alert operators to the presence of personnel near forklifts, this system prevents accidents before they occur by providing awareness. Utilising state-of-the-art sensors and communication technology, the PAS ensures operators are always aware of their surroundings, significantly reducing the risk of collisions and enhancing overall site safety.
The supply chain industry faces unique challenges that require innovative solutions. RCT’s SmarTrack Fleet Management and Pedestrian Alert System provide a comprehensive approach to address these challenges, offering a safer, more efficient, and cost-effective way to manage supply chain operations.
