Discover Big Ideas for the Small-package Supply Chain at Parcel Forum

Discover Big Ideas for the Small-package Supply Chain at Parcel Forum

Over the past year, the COVID-19 pandemic has dramatically changed consumer shopping habits and placed extraordinary pressures on every facet of the small-package supply chain, including the way goods are handled, packaged and shipped. For distribution and fulfillment (D&F) center operators, this has translated into unprecedented spikes in shipping volumes amid a declining pool of available labor. As a result, the combination of consistently high order volumes and lingering labor scarcities has accelerated the push for smart automation and the need for data-driven decision-making.

If you’re looking for the latest strategies to address these challenges, then make plans to join Honeywell Intelligrated at Parcel Forum from Sept. 14–16 in Washington, D.C. As the essential learning event for e-commerce centric (B2C) and business-to-business (B2B) shippers, Parcel Forum is a terrific opportunity to learn, network, share and re-connect with colleagues and peers.

While you attend informative workshops and participate in peer-to-peer networking events, visit the Honeywell Intelligrated booth (234) in the exhibit hall, where we will be highlighting solutions targeted to the small-package supply chain:

Join Jason Franklin on Sept. 16 from 8:50–9:30 a.m. EDT for this informative session, Respond to Labor Challenges and Meet Demand With Capacity Planning.
