Industry Forecast: Mostly cloudy, with a few rays of light

Just how willing are materials handling decision makers to make a move on their equipment and technology purchases this year?

Although the outlook for the materials handling industry in 2009—much like the U.S economy as a whole—remains mostly cloudy, we’ve found that there are actually a few rays of light breaking through the gloom.

Join Modern Materials Handling’s Executive Editor Bob Trebilcock as he digs into the details of the 2009 Industry Outlook Report. This exclusive report offers warehouse and distribution center managers a better understanding of the current state of materials handling purchasing and exposes trends and practices in manufacturing, warehousing, and distribution environments. The report also tracks changes in the materials handling market during the previous 12 months.

Trebilcock will be joined by:

James Haughey, director of economics for RBI-US. Haughey will share his outlook on general economic conditions;

Tom Wimmer, director, auto ID and transaction automation practice at VDC Research Group. Wimmer will discuss the outlook for the industrial date capture and mobile computing industry;

Noha Tohamy, vice president at AMR Research. Tohamy will discuss the state of the supply chain management software market.
