Launching this Fall, now is your time to sponsor this essential market intelligence to support your business planning in Q4 and into 2022!  View on PRweb NeXt-Curve, Mind Commerce, and Compass Intelligence are proud to announce the official launch of The 2021 Multi-client EDGE Business survey. The 2021 Multi-client Survey is a collaborative market research and advisory engagement led by market research and advisory firms neXt Curve, Mind Commerce, and Compass Intelligence. This is an opportunity to understand where the market is post-2020 and to engage with both end-users and technology decision-makers on key topics that are of interest in 2021 with a focus on edge computing, data analytics/AI, fixed/private wireless for the enterprise including use cases and applications, and other leading topics that impact growth, adoption, scale, and budget planning. Businesses across the globe experienced massive shifts and changes in operations, digital transformation, workforce trends, and customer experiences in 2020 and into 2021 due to the pandemic. As the market begins and continues to correct and adjust, shifting priorities are evolving for businesses and enterprises when it comes to workforce automation, data intelligence, remote operations, and having access to real-time data for insights and action. As such, the edge (edge computing, edge networking, data analytics) is becoming a vital component for businesses, and is being driven by emerging technologies such as machine learning, artificial intelligence, robotic process automation, and IoT solutions. More importantly, businesses seek quick access to insights and operational information to respond and act from the supply chain to the customer experience. Survey sponsorships offer a prime opportunity to tap into the market and probe insightful feedback, explore market opportunities, and gather market intelligence on what the next chapter in digital transformation will look like driven by edge computing. The survey will launch in August, with deliverables being sent to sponsor companies in August and September, and executive presentations and read-outs to follow. The survey will consist of 5,000 to 7,500 U.S. end-user and technology decision-maker respondents, and will center around a number of critical enterprise topics including 5G, edge computing, fixed wireless, workplace automation, IoT, enterprise uses cases, and other enterprise technologies. The survey will be an online-based survey across size of business and industry, with the opportunity to invest in quotas for a given segment of the industry that might be more important for our sponsor companies. Sponsor packages are currently open with a limited number of spots available, with the most robust Platinum package that offers an additional layer of advisory and customization. The benefits of the multi-client approach are to garner a mass survey with a lower investment, and to leverage timely market insights for corporate strategy, portfolio planning, business prioritization, and channel management. This survey is deal for corporate strategy, product planning, marketing, and sales teams.

Zebra SmartSight recognized as innovative IoT solution by Compass Intelligence Zebra Technologies Corporation (NASDAQ: ZBRA), an innovator at the front line of business with solutions and partners that deliver a performance edge, today announced that Compass Intelligence recognized its SmartSight™ intelligent automation solution with an IoT Retail & Customer Experiences Innovator Award. The Retail & Customer Experiences category evaluated solutions that support industry innovation, advancements in processes or operations specific to retail services, customer experience enhancements, transaction automation, innovative buying experiences, and other retail advancements.
SmartSight is the retail industry’s first subscription-based robotics solution that turns data into corrective actions for mass merchants, grocers, and supermarkets/hypermarkets. It is comprised of the EMA50 mobile automation system, retail automation software platform and both professional and managed services. Using 2D and 3D sensors, SmartSight creates a digital twin of stores and their shelves to help determine if there are out-of-stocks, price integrity or planogram compliance issues. The retail automation software platform then determines the corrective action needed and assigns a task to the nearest store associate’s mobile computer in real time. “We are honored that SmartSight has been recognized with a 2020 Compass Intelligence IoT Innovator award,” said Joe White, Senior Vice President and General Manager for Enterprise Mobile Computing, Zebra Technologies." With SmartSight, retailers can dedicate human associates to focus on higher value tasks, such as helping customers in store. SmartSight, including the EMA50, leverages Zebra’s deep retail experience and market leadership over the last 50 years. Our solutions help reduce the time front-line workers spend monitoring the status of shelves and increase their availability to interact directly with shoppers and improve the shopping experience.” When used with the EMA50 enterprise mobile automation system, SmartSight can provide 95% accuracy in identifying stockouts, misplaced product, incorrect price labels, and location and planogram compliance. SmartSight provides brick-and-mortar retailers a performance edge by autonomously prescribing corrective actions to associates based on what is happening at the shelf. By substantially reducing out-of-stock conditions and improving inventory availability, SmartSight with EMA50 enables retailers to better utilize store labor and minimize price issues. This leads to higher levels of in-store revenue and customer satisfaction along with reduced price non-compliance fines. “SmartSight offers the retail industry an innovative solution to provide real-time intelligence and insights across store operations while freeing up workers to focus on more patron-facing services,” states Stephanie Atkinson, CEO of Compass Intelligence. “We applaud Zebra and its entire team for combining automation, video analytics, robotics technology, and real-time data analytics to enhance the retail experience.” ### About The CompassIntel IoT Innovator Awards The 3rd Annual CompassIntel IoT Innovator Awards honors companies and vendors demonstrating innovation in Internet of Things solutions, products, applications, and technology.
