Supply Chain SmartBox
Innovation update
fter having an operational unit at the Aurora Data Centre,
ASmartBox Innovation continues to gather momentum
with a number of opportunities for customer installation
evolving over the past few weeks. The program has been
strengthened by the assignment of delegates representing the
ADM’s and ASM’s who are now actively ramping up customer
engagements within their domains. Thanks to Allan Lucky and
Peter Louiz for their great work in this area. There is still a lot
of work to be done but we are heading in the right direction.
This deployment phase we have the opportunity to deploy up
to 12 SmartBoxes and right now we have 6 customers that
fit the eligibility profile where positive discussions are taking
place. Our first SmartBox shipment will leave Coventry – UK
in early June via Sea Freight and will arrive in Sydney in early
August.
Good work team! – Spread the word on innovation and keep
the momentum going.
