Optimize Your Workflow Performance with Voice

Optimized Workflow Performance Make an Efficient Business Run Even Better In these challenging times, it s a balancing act to drive profitable growth and streamline existing processes to further reduce costs and make an efficient business run even better. Honeywell can help you identify additional ways to reduce your operating costs, while supporting increased workforce productivity and greater worker accuracy. Honeywell is a leading provider of innovative voice technology solutions, helping companies with mobile workers run a better business with voice. Our Vocollect voice solutions provides you with streamlined best-in-class business processes to take your organization to the next level of operating efficiency. Our extensive supply chain industry domain expertise has helped us successfully onboard almost one million mobile workers around the world. Honeywell offers the number one voice solution in the industry, specifically designed to fully leverage existing ERP & WMS technology investments with the industry s broadest and deepest data integration solution portfolio. We provide an elegantly integrated solution from the headset to host data system for maximum worker confidence and ergonomics. Honeywell is proud to lead the industry forward with our market-leading Vocollect A700 Solution that optimizes voice and scanning. Delivering results starts with our Value Engagement Process, where our team learns more about your specific business objectives as we gain an understanding of your detailed operational and workflow processes. We meet with key management to better understand the prioritization of the business issues that you want to address. Together, we will physically walk through one of your targeted facilities to document and observe workers executing various tasks. Our observations and recommendations go well beyond just where voice technology could add quantifiable business value. After all, we want to help you run a better a business with voice. 1 Vocollect Solutions Brochure Honeywell www.vocollect.com

Honeywell Vocollect Voice Value with Velocity Rapidly Relieve Your Operational Pressures Time to value cannot be measured in years. Success must be measured in weeks and months. Your velocity toward gaining business value is a key operational deliverable and a reason why Honeywell continues to stand tall as the industry s most trusted and deployed voice solution. The majority of our customers show a measureable hard investment break-even in less than nine (9) months. This does not even take into account the many soft benefits obtained from implementing our solutions. You achieve business benefits rapidly by starting with best-in-class business processes, proven at thousands of individual customer implementations. Then together, we enhance the solution to fit your unique requirements. We have a proven global best practice pedigree across a multitude of industries. Honeywell s Vocollect solutions excel at providing more successful multi-site implementations than all of our competitors combined. We attribute this success to providing our customers with quantifiable value after their first site implementation, which provides the continuing business justification to implement our solution at additional locations. The success of our customers speaks volumes. Our interaction across many industries and diverse customer requirements enables our users to gain valuable insights outside their own industry. As an example, certain customers were confronted with addressing multi-channel order fulfillment issues well in advance of other segments. This has afforded us the opportunity to develop optimized best practices for multi-channel order fulfillment environments, well before it became an industry requirement. We also gained early insight into traceability mandates through working with customers wanting to support upcoming traceability requirements, long before they became ubiquitous in the marketplace and are now having an impact on virtually every industry. Our customers say it best the following is a collection of quotes from customers who obtained business value with our solutions: We ve cut warehouse injuries in half and boosted our accuracy rate when filling orders to 99.99% from about 98%. - VP of Distribution The introduction of Vocollect has resulted in almost paperless, highly efficient processes, and our customer service is at its highest level ever. - Logistics Manager We save money every time we don t have to make an emergency delivery to a customer. And this enhances our image to our customers. You can t put a dollar value on that, but if I had to, it would be in the millions. - General Manager Vocollect Voice has streamlined our operations and provided us with increased productivity and improved accuracy. The new equipment is robust and effective for use in cold storage, and that will bring down our cost of ownership in the long run. - Operation Manager Since the voice deployment, we have been able to confidently handle our seasonal fluctuations. Labor assignments are more flexible, which has helped us to reduce our labor hours by over 20%, decrease inventory adjustments in picking areas by 80%, and cut our training time by 80%. - CIO www.vocollect.com Honeywell Vocollect Solutions Brochure 2

Optimized Operational Flexibility Maximum Worker Utilization The addition of our Vocollect voice solutions to your distribution center operations offers you the transformative workforce performance gains you require, with the infrastructure flexibility you need. While voice technology was initially implemented to enhance the process flow for various fulfillment tasks, the extremely positive operational benefits companies netted resulted in a growing number of them expanding their use of our voice solutions into other areas of their distribution center. Vocollect voice solutions provide you with the immediate operational benefits you desire, without multi-year infrastructure commitments that reduce your flexibility to adopt to changes in the business environment. You can even add Vocollect voice to an existing infrastructure such as handheld scanning, Pick-to-Light and various automation environments. The Voice-Enabled Warehouse More Confident Workers with Vocollect RapidStart We all know that confident workers typically outperform their peers. At Honeywell, we are always looking for ways to raise the worker confidence bar and to help reduce the burden on management to train workers. Our solution to this problem is Vocollect RapidStart, which enables workers to practically teach themselves with a consistent onboarding experience. Using Vocollect RapidStart greatly reduces the time needed for supervisor-led instruction and helps a worker learn how to use Vocollect voice solutions through audio and video cues, using any browser-based device with a display, taking them through a self-guided tour. It uses self-evident teaching aids for the worker and enables supervisors to follow their training progress remotely with their smartphones or tablets. Follow workers remotely to better support and provide training assistance Self-instruction with limited supervision 3 Vocollect Solutions Brochure Honeywell www.vocollect.com

Seamless and Scalable Integration Supporting Industry Standards and Practices Our industry experience has shown us that no two customers business processes are exactly the same. Thus, it s vital that our integration architecture be flexible to accommodate many potential customer infrastructure configurations. Honeywell Vocollect voice solutions offer the deepest and broadest range of enterprise connectors to support virtually every architectural environment requirement. You even have the flexibility to leverage different enterprise connectors in differing areas of your business. Balancing the needs of operations management, IT, and the actual workers is why Honeywell continues to lead the voice industry forward. Only Honeywell Vocollect voice solutions give you the choice and flexibility to manage your IT infrastructure the way you want to while helping your business run better.

A typical headset picks up standard warehouse noises that are then processed by a voice recognition engine. This includes common sounds such as pallet drops, truck beeps, conveyer system mechanism sounds and freezer fans. Each of these unwanted noises causes voice recognition sound interpretation delays.

Honeywell Vocollect Voice Hardware Elegant Design for Maximum Worker Ergonomics The Vocollect A730 mobile device breaks down the long-time perceived walls between voice and scanning. Honeywell is proud to be the first and only organization in the world to have designed an ergonomic solution that optimizes voice and scanning in a single mobile device. For workers that occasionally require a scanner for tasks such as order induction or serial and lot number capture, you will be hard-pressed to find a more elegant and ergonomic solution. The Vocollect A700 Solution offers models without a scanner end-cap as well as models supporting wired and wireless headsets. The Vocollect A700 Solution devices help ensure you reduce worker downtime to change batteries with our smart predictive battery management capabilities. The various A700 device models all use a common infrastructure of chargers, headsets, and accessories to provide you with maximum IT support flexibility. Integrated Scanner End-Cap Voice-Optimized Headsets Only Honeywell offers industrial-grade headsets that are specifically designed and manufactured to support challenging warehouse environments. We understand what is required to maximize the headset experience, which is often the weakest link in a positive worker experience. Honeywell provides the flexibility to use either a wireless or wired headset option. We also offer headsets that are optimized for the challenging freezer and high-noise conveyor environments. Headset styles include versions worn behind-the-head, over the top of the head, or with hard hats. With our broad portfolio of headsets, you will find a headset choice to meet your specific demands. The Vocollect SRX2 wireless headset sets an entirely new standard for how workers work in the distribution center. It greatly enhances the worker experience by providing the most comfortable and ergonomic wireless headset option available. The Vocollect SRX2 wireless headset leverages Vocollect SoundSense voice recognition technology, offering unmatched accuracy. Using Vocollect TouchConnect, a worker can quickly pair their Vocollect SRX2 wireless headset with a simple touch, thereby reducing shift start-up procedures from minutes to seconds. The innovative, shareable component design enables shared use of electronics across multiple shifts, reducing both the up-front and the ongoing cost of ownership. Vocollect SRX2 Wireless Headset with Vocollect SoundSense Predictive Battery Management No battery lasts forever. Our advanced predictive battery management minimizes the possibility that workers will be interrupted during their shift to replace batteries in their equipment. We approached this problem in two ways: from the voice worker s perspective and from the operations manager s perspective. For voice workers, we help to reduce time wasted for unexpected battery changes by enabling workers to ask a device how much battery runtime remains on their A700 mobile device. Based on the device s response, a worker can then plan accordingly. For operations managers, our advanced predictive battery management offers clear visual indications at the battery charging station about the health of each battery, enabling managers to better plan for future inventory needs. You can also configure your battery health parameters in Vocollect VoiceConsole so that your battery warnings best fit your usage patterns and environment. This is just another example of how Honeywell can help you run a better business with voice.
