In this webcast, David Teeple, Director of Client Services at Sedlak Supply Chain Consultants, and Royanna Chappell, VP of Business Development at OIA, explore how a prominent mail-order business specializing in sporting equipment transformed its fulfillment operations in a brownfield site.

Attendees will learn:

  • How automation supports daily operations and seasonal peaks without disruption
  • Lessons from a real-world brownfield automation success story
  • Practical steps to evaluate and modernize existing infrastructure
  • The importance of being proactive, and how to start planning for automation
