Whole-hog into forklift fleet management: Clemens Food reduces collisions using electronic tracking

摘要

Forklift accidents can be costly - both in terms of dollars to repair damaged vehicles, structures and racking - and in terms of the man hours it takes to figure out what went wrong and come up with solutions to prevent similar incidents from happening again. Clemens Food Group, a Hatfield, Pennsylvania-based producer of pork products, wanted to get a better handle on its fleet and reduce the number and severity of accidents. To do that, the nearly 120-year-old company needed to abandon its paper-based tracking and safety-compliance system, so it turned to one of its forklift suppliers for a solution.
