Enterprise Zero People Pilot
60–90 Days
An operational pilot, not just a demo. In 60–90 days we jointly test an automation architecture – from Smart Essentials to Automated Systems and Zero People Zones – and measure the real impact on cost and performance.
The Goal: To prove how physical automation can reduce routine costs by up to 3x and increase service availability, without shutting your business down during the transition.
Is this pilot the right fit?
Designed for organizations operating multiple locations with high-volume repetitive processes.
- Scale: Operates multiple locations (stores, warehouses, campuses, etc.).
- Process: Runs high-volume repetitive processes (BOPIS, reception, F&B, supply, etc.).
- Strategy: Wants to validate an automation program before scaling to dozens or hundreds of sites.
Retail Networks
Convenience, QSR, DIY, Drugstores, Beauty.
Hospitality
Hotel chains, Resorts, Spa & Wellness.
Logistics
Warehouses, Hubs, Industrial Sites.
Corporate
Offices, Campuses, Residential & Mixed-use.
What we actually test
We observe real adoption, not just theoretical scenarios.
Automation of a Key Zone
A clearly defined zone – hotel reception, BOPIS, parcel & convenience, staff gear supply, pantry – transformed into a Zero People Zone.
User Behaviour
How customers, employees and suppliers interact with Smart Essentials and Automated Systems. We track real-world friction and flow.
System Integration
ERP, WMS, POS, eCommerce, CRM, payments, access control. We test end-to-end flows, including exception handling.
Cost & Performance Impact
Measuring service time, routine labour cost reduction, error rates, shrinkage, and sales/utilization per square meter.
