American Industrial Partners (AIP) acquired Honeywell Technologies Warehouse and Workflow Solutions business, which includes Intelligrated and Transnorm.
With the transaction complete, Intelligrated, Trew and Transnorm now operate under one organization, singularly focused on helping customers design, build and support world-class warehouse automation solutions for retail, e-commerce, manufacturing, distribution and parcel operations.
"Today is more than simply bringing three respected organizations together,” says Alfred Rebello, newly appointed CEO. “It's about creating a future built entirely around our customers' success. By combining our expertise, technologies and talent, we're able to deliver broader capabilities, stronger execution and continued investment in innovation, while providing the continuity and trusted relationships customers depend on."
Key takeaways:
· The combined organization brings together automation expertise, complementary technologies, systems design and project management with expanded manufacturing, engineering and service capacity. Together, the businesses offer comprehensive portfolios of equipment, software and services to optimize today's operations, modernize fulfillment networks and prepare for tomorrow's complex distribution challenges.
· The new organization is purpose-built around warehouse automation, bringing to market a combined automation portfolio that includes systems integration, conveyor, sortation, robotics, automated storage and retrieval (AS/RS), palletizing, software, controls and lifecycle services.
"Bringing these businesses together is a growth strategy targeting a growing market,” says Rebello. “The numbers tell that story – industry research commonly projects double-digit growth in warehouse automation into the 2030s. To meet that demand, we must listen deeply to our customers and continually invest in tomorrow’s innovations. Earning their trust through every phase of their automation journey is how we’ll measure our success moving forward."
