Zion is the first systems integrator to offer a humanoid robotics solution for connecting isolated islands of automation in warehouse operations

Agility Robotics, creator of the market-leading bipedal Mobile Manipulation Robot (MMR) Digit, today announced a partnership with Zion Solutions Group, a premier provider of full-service system integrations. Through this groundbreaking partnership, Zion is the first systems integrator to offer a humanoid robotics solution to the supply chain industry.

Many companies have turned to automation to increase warehouse efficiency and productivity, but there remain a series of tasks that are difficult to automate and nearly impossible to keep filled due to high turnover, high injury rates, and an ever-growing labor gap. Agility's solutions are designed to execute exactly these types of monotonous bulk material handling and movement tasks that connect isolated manual and automated workflows. Zion works with customers to design intelligent concepts and solve complex logistics challenges. This partnership allows Zion to integrate Agility's solutions, including Digit and Agility Arc, into their warehouse solutions and designs.

"Agility Robotics is a leader in robotic technology, paving the way for the next generation of supply chain innovation," said Jim Shaw, President of Zion Solutions Group. "We are thrilled to be the very first systems integrator to introduce humanoid robotics as a solution. We believe that in the not-so-distant future, this technology will revolutionize how humans and robots work alongside each other in warehouses. Agility's Digit, which became the first humanoid robot operational in a live warehouse environment in 2023, is already transforming collaborative workflows. Agility's practical and robust strategic approach resonates deeply with our mission to deliver memorable experiences and guide intelligent change. We're excited to bring this groundbreaking technology to our customers."

Digit is a multi-purpose, human-centric robot made for logistics work that incorporates sophisticated AI models, allowing it to adapt quickly and continually to new tasks and workflows.

Engineered to comply with stringent OSHA-safety standards, Digit can work safely in human spaces and perform a variety of difficult, repetitive, and sometimes dangerous tasks in logistics and manufacturing operations. Agility Arc is a cloud automation platform for deploying and managing Digit fleets, that simplifies the deployment lifecycle, from facility mapping, to workflow definition, to operational management and troubleshooting.

"The visionary team at Zion understands how innovative robotics solutions like Digit and Agility Arc will transform the future of supply chain operations," said Peggy Johnson, CEO of Agility Robotics. "When it comes to designing and implementing safe, efficient workflows and productive facilities, Zion's deep industry experience and progressive approach to automation make them an ideal match for Agility. We are honored to partner with a company that shares our commitment to customer success."
