Case Study - The Last Mile of Connecting Workers - Audio (Smurfit Westrock)

Atrium Ballroom A

We spend a lot of time providing tablets, smartphones and head-mounted devices to frontline workers for work instructions, training and reference materials. What we need to fully connect the deskless workforce to the right information is audio communications for timely, relevant delivery of critical information. In this session, we will explore the use of connected audio solutions that are proving to be immensely valuable in manufacturing.
