iWAREHOUSE® Real-Time Location System powers operation control and is a proven solution with tens of millions of run-time hours at more than 70 live sites

The Raymond Corporation’s iWAREHOUSE® Real-Time Location System (iW.RTLS) is proven to advance operational performance.  Designed, engineered and supported by Raymond, iW.RTLS is a scalable original equipment manufacturer (OEM) solution that tracks and controls the movements of lift trucks throughout the facility, and has delivered enterprise-level results at more than 70 live sites with tens of millions of run-time hours.

With precise, infrastructure-based location tracking, geofencing and zoning, the system enables proactive, rule-driven control — embedding warehouse policies directly into lift truck movement to reinforce consistency. By turning real-time visibility into enforceable performance standards, iW.RTLS helps reduce preventable costs, stabilize throughput and support disciplined operations at scale.

“The Raymond Corporation has a longstanding history of providing solutions that support busy warehouses with forklifts that are constantly on the move to ensure greater efficiency and control,” said Shannon Curtis, Director of Product Marketing, The Raymond Corporation. “At Raymond, we are committed to handling these dynamics with a coordinated, holistic approach in iW.RTLS, which gives warehouse managers the proactive facility control they need to create a more secure, consistent and compliant operation.”

iW.RTLS is designed to help operations:

• Reduce enterprise risk exposure. Control and standardize lift truck behavior across facilities to help minimize preventable incidents and enforce rule compliance in high-risk areas.
• Minimize operational disruptions. Protect throughput by controlling movements to help reduce congestion, damage, and workflow interruptions.
• Scale the system as business grows. Deploy repeatable zoning strategies across shifts and sites for enterprise-wide standardization and operational efficiencies.
• Control preventable loss and capital waste. Minimize structural and infrastructure impacts and avoidable maintenance costs by reinforcing proper lift truck operation.
• Reinforce training and streamline on-boarding times. Promote consistent operator behavior — and lower the need for retraining — by embedding facility rules directly into lift truck control.

Powered by geofencing, iW.RTLS enables facility-defined operational rules to be tied to physical locations throughout the warehouse by using nine fully customizable preset zone types. Working in conjunction with the iWAREHOUSE Telematics System, iW.RTLS captures zone activity, travel patterns and utilization data to support congestion analysis and fleet optimization. iW.RTLS can be added to current RAYMOND^® lift trucks, including automated and non-automated vehicles.
