The rise of automated storage retrieval systems (ASRS) in e-commerce creates unique safety challenges for next-gen distribution centers. A single ASRS stoppage or fire incident can cripple operations and cost millions.
One client faced this dilemma. Their existing fire and life safety system couldn't handle their new ASRS, posing a continuity and safety nightmare. They needed a safety system that wouldn't slow down construction, but the tight timeline added another layer of complexity.
Enter Edwards! In collaboration with Edwards Strategic Partner, Esscoe, and Novak Construction, we were able to:
• Upgrade the existing fire alarm system to seamlessly integrate with the ASRS.
• Develop a customized fire protection plan to mitigate risks and ensure operational continuity.
• Execute the entire project within a condensed timeline
Take a behind the scenes look as we share insights on safeguarding ASRS environments.
