GXO expands partnership with Robotic Assistance Devices

The world’s largest pure-play contract logistics provider GXO has today announced it is expanding its technology partnership with Robotic Assistance Devices (RAD), a subsidiary of Artificial Intelligence Technology Solutions.

GXO is currently developing advanced security solutions with RAD to improve the safety and efficiency of its customers’ logistics operations.

Thomas Nelson, Senior Director of Security at GXO said: “By combining our logistics expertise with RAD’s innovative robotics, we’ve deployed even more cost-effective solutions that didn’t exist just a few years ago. We look forward to continuing our partnership with RAD as we increase safety and drive efficiencies for our customers.”

GXO has been using RAD technology since 2018 and is currently in the process of implementing a wide assortment of robotic security devices across 15 of its sites. The company plans to increase this initial deployment by nearly 20% in 2023.

The robotic devices perform a variety of tasks, including video surveillance and analytics, virtual barriers and added inventory security for high-value product, and they combine robotics with advanced video surveillance and analytics, artificial intelligence and software to enhance safety and security.

Steve Reinharz, CEO of AITX and RAD said, “It’s a pleasure to work with GXO on successfully deploying advanced security solutions. In 2022, we saw more deployments for GXO than in any other year of our partnership and we foresee many more fruitful years of working with GXO.

GXO will be speaking at this year’s co-located shows IntraLogisteX and Robotics and Automation, so make sure you register now to catch them along with several other huge names

IntraLogisteX is taking place on the 28th & 29th March at the NEC in Birmingham.
