Seminar Description:
This session will feature two real-world case studies highlighting the successful integration of robotics as a core component of landscape maintenance operations.
The first case study will explore implementation from a college campus operations perspective, offering insight into institutional adoption, workflow integration, and performance outcomes. The second case study will focus on private sector deployment, demonstrating how robotic mowing systems have been effectively utilized in commercial operations.
Participants will gain a deeper understanding of both the challenges encountered and the measurable benefits achieved, including operational efficiency, labor considerations, and overall performance in the field.
Learning Objectives:
1.Gain firsthand insights from facilities supervisors and operations managers on their experience with robotics and how these systems support their maintenance needs.
2.Learn how to effectively assess, install, implement, and manage robotic systems within landscape operations.
3.Understand strategies to overcome common challenges through proper training and integration of a robotic workforce.
