Forklift Telemetry at Berry Material Handling

Forklift telemetry provides data and insights that help organizations better understand how their equipment is being used. By collecting information directly from forklifts, telemetry systems support smarter decisions around safety, maintenance, and fleet optimization.

Berry Material Handling helps customers evaluate and implement forklift telemetry solutions that align with operational goals, not just technology for technology’s sake.

What Is Forklift Telemetry?

Telemetry systems can monitor:

  • Operating hours and utilization
  • Impacts and events
  • Speed and travel patterns
  • Idle time
  • Operator behavior
  • Electronic OSHA Recording

Improving Forklift Safety

One of the most valuable uses of telemetry is improving safety in warehouse and industrial environments. By identifying impacts and near-miss events, monitoring unsafe operating behavior, and supporting training and accountability, telemetry helps reinforce safe operating standards. Data-driven safety programs can reduce incidents, protect equipment, and create a safer workplace for operators and teams.

Supporting Maintenance and Uptime

Telemetry data helps connect equipment usage directly to maintenance needs.

Benefits include:

  • Maintenance triggered by actual usage, not estimates
  • Early identification of abnormal behavior
  • Reduced unplanned downtime
  • Better coordination with planned maintenance programs

Telemetry supports a more proactive approach to service and maintenance.

Fleet Utilization and Optimization

Many fleets operate with more equipment than necessary due to limited visibility into actual usage.

Telemetry helps organizations:

  • Understand true utilization rates
  • Identify underused or overused equipment
  • Right-size forklift fleets
  • Support capital planning decisions

Better data leads to better equipment decisions.

Data That Supports Smarter Decisions

Insights can support:

  • Operational efficiency improvements
  • Cost control initiatives
  • Equipment replacement planning
  • Compliance and documentation needs
