Moving to the Cloud

Crown InfoLink is a wireless forklift fleet and operator management system that delivers actionable data to help warehouse managers maximise productivity. Hosted by Crown, InfoLink now provides a flexible approach to fleet and operator management by offering a two-tier platform that aligns with customer needs and challenges, and provides multiple paths to forklift fleet optimisation depending upon organisational priorities and budgets.

The Standard plan provides basic fleet and operator management features, including operator authorisation for equipment use, impact detection and alerts, along with real-time equipment status.

The Advantage plan offers companies the ability to increase operator productivity, manage planned and unplanned maintenance, and optimise energy resources including battery changes and fuel usage, in addition to the basic fleet management features.

"We are seeing the forklift quickly become the most advanced piece of equipment that touches every part of the warehouse. More advanced on-board technology is improving operator productivity and enabling connectivity that helps to provide greater visibility into the warehouse environment, operator productivity and product movement,” said Jim Gaskell, director of global Crown Insite products, Crown Equipment. "Crown InfoLink helps companies use actionable information to make better business decisions and achieve a better return on investment. The new two- tier platform makes it easier for organisations to get started with fleet management. For instance, depending on a customer’s needs, they may be able to enjoy fleet management capabilities for as little as the cost of a cup of coffee per day, per forklift.”
