Salt Lake City. 28 July 2022 – Ivanti Wavelink, the supply chain business unit of Ivanti, announced the combination of Ivanti Neurons for IIoT and Velocity for Business Process Automation to enhance worker productivity by automating common warehouse tasks to resolve operational inefficiencies.

With the complexity of warehouse operations and the ever-increasing demands placed on supply chains, common warehouse issues such as damaged goods or bad barcodes can lead to unnecessary downtime and disrupt operations. The combination of Ivanti Neurons for IIoT and Velocity provides a scalable solution and enables supply chain operators to easily identify, record and resolve exceptions in business processes and keep warehouse operations moving smoothly.

For example, damaged items in the warehouse can distract workers from primary tasks as they try to find the correct way to report these events often this process requires institutional knowledge, accessing another application, or completing a form on paper. By embedding these processes within Ivanti Velocity, where millions of material handlers spend the majority of their day, operators will be able to quickly submit a report including a photograph and any other relevant data. The automation engine in Ivanti Neurons for IIoT can notify the appropriate department to rectify the problem and track the report to completion. Business Process Automation benefits:

• Keep workers focused on their main tasks – Maintaining the desired productivity
• Workers can fill out forms on mobile devices – no paper forms or switching applications
• Protect investments in existing technology, no changes to host systems and can be used with existing processes
• Keep warehouse operations running smoothly by quickly notifying fix agents to correct the problem
• No new software required on the device
• No changes to host

“Ivanti Wavelink’s Business Process Automation enables a more efficient way to handle common warehouse issues and opens the door for further process automation in the warehouse,” says Brandon Black, senior vice president and general manager, Ivanti Wavelink. “The combination of the Q2 2022 releases of Velocity and Ivanti Neurons for IIoT will help streamline warehouse operations by making it much faster and easier for workers to report issues or abnormalities and then return to their normal workflow right away.”

This out-of-the box solution is easy to configure and requires little training to get workers up to speed, providing an incredibly fast time to value. And since the customer will use both Velocity and Ivanti Neurons for IIoT to enable these processes, no Pro Services are required.
