Description (French)
Pacefactory se lance dans un projet avec un détaillant en ligne pour aider à améliorer la sécurité des travailleurs dans leurs entrepôts de distribution.

L'objectif est de démontrer l'applicabilité et l'évolutivité de la solution Pacefactory. En cas de succès, la prochaine étape consistera à étudier comment l'application peut être déployée à grande échelle, et ce, en tant que norme d'entreprise pour améliorer la santé et la sécurité de tous les employés des entrepôts dans le monde entier.
