I worked to deliver a new, much improved warehouse experience using Android OS running on Honeywell Warehouse Hardware.
Key goals of the project were to improve the user experience for the warehouse staff and as a consequence improve efficiency and create a more welcoming digital environment for the millennial seasonal workers around the warehouses.

The feedback was that people are now: 2X faster than using the old technology
