Case Study: PC Liquidations
Jacksonville, Florida-based PCLiquidations buys used and discontinued IT hardware it then refurbishes and resells to price-conscious buyers around the United States. Over the decades it has developed a well-honed system to maximize efficiencies as workers “pull” products from shelves for shipping, yet its warehouse workers still walk close to 20,000 steps/day.
After learning about Shift Robotics and the promise of its robotic shoes, PCLiquidations began a six-week, real-world test and evaluation period of Moonwalkers. When the review period was over, employees wearing Moonwalkers:
- More than doubled the number of refurbed products they could pull from shelves for customer shipments,
- Doubled the amount of newly received products they could put onto shelves, while firm also realized that
- The Payback Period for each pair of Moonwalkers was under 1 month.
