Failed or paused pilots are valuable. They teach the platform which barriers to flag earlier.
Example outcomes

How an outcome is captured

Food manufacturer (Ontario)
Pathway: Robotic palletizing
Pilot succeeded
Reason
Throughput sustained on top SKUs; ergonomic exposure reduced.
Barrier
—
Next action
Plan rollout to a second packaging line.
Lessons learned
Pallet pattern standardization done before vendor engagement shortened deployment by weeks.
Distribution operator
Pathway: AMR pallet movement
Pilot failed
Reason
Route variability and mixed traffic exceeded reliable operating envelope.
Barrier
Layout constraint
Next action
Layout and slotting redesign before any AMR retry.
Lessons learned
Trip data and pedestrian/forklift overlap should be mapped before vendor engagement.
Packaging facility
Pathway: Lift assist
Match accepted
Reason
Near-term ergonomic relief while robotic option is evaluated.
Barrier
—
Next action
Track injury and turnover trends over next two quarters.
Lessons learned
Bridging interventions can de-risk a later automation decision.
Beverage manufacturer
Pathway: Vision inspection
Match rejected
Reason
Internal sponsor not yet identified; capital cycle 18 months out.
Barrier
No internal sponsor
Next action
Re-open after sponsor and capital path are confirmed.
Lessons learned
Sponsor confirmation should be a precondition to vendor introduction.
