Monroe, NC -- (SBWIRE) -- 05/22/2014 -- A comprehensive vendor agnostic study of potential automation applications is required. Some automation projects are simply a waste of time, a poor project concept, or ignore applications that may have immediate positive return on investment. Again an AGV vendor sales pitch essentially suggests to a prospective customer that a prescribed AGV solution is best. Perhaps it is; often it is not. Stopping after this first step may be sufficient to avoid the substantial financial hemorrhaging from poor automation technology solutions.

John Hayes, Founder of NoRiskAutomation, suggests that all companies considering the purchase of automation, particularly automated guided vehicles, follow a four step process. “While not all companies need to go through all four steps, the first step, an application study and analysis is absolutely essential,” Hayes shared.
