PEAK Launches Solutions to Optimize SAP Supply Chain Operations

PEAK Technologies launches voice-enabled solutions for SAP supply chain users to improve order picking accuracy to 99.9 percent and increase productivity by up to 15 percent. PEAK utilizes SAP-centric technologies to deliver mobile data capture, enterprise printing, radio frequency identification (RFID) and now voice-enabled solutions to customers, including SAP Logistics Execution System modules: warehouse management, materials management and inventory management. PEAK also delivers native, SAP-centric solutions for production planning, plant maintenance, mobile asset management and Auto ID Infrastructure. PEAK's voice-enabled solutions use speech recognition and speech synthesis to allow workers to communicate with SAP supply chain management systems for tasks such as goods receiving, pallet put away, let down and stock checking. In these scenarios, a warehouse employee uses a wireless, wearable computer with a headset and microphone to receive instructions by voice and then verbally confirms his or her actions back to the SAP warehouse management system. The wearable computer, or voice terminal, communicates with the SAP system via radio frequency and wireless local area network.
