“Robotic automation can transform a company’s operations, boost efficiency, and reduce expenses, but high upfront costs, technical complexities, and an overwhelming network of vendors often slows adoption. Holman is ready to change that,” said Chris Conroy, Holman CEO. “We are building upon decades of experience managing complex assets for our customers. As the industry’s premier fleet management provider, Holman helps businesses eliminate these barriers to entry and will deliver tailored robotics solutions that align with our customer’s business goals and operational workflows.”

Holman Robotics takes a holistic approach to robotic automation, bundling hardware, data integration, management software, and ongoing support into a single, streamlined solution. This model enables customers to launch faster, scale smarter, and maximize the long-term value of their investment with less complexity, Holman said.

Holman’s robotics solution features:

  • Design Advocacy – Aligning the ideal robotics solutions with business priorities and validating technical fit through a curated network of leading OEMs, system integrators, and technology providers.

  • Streamlined Financing – Flexible funding options that consolidate all expenses, transforming significant upfront capital investments into manageable operating costs to accelerate deployment.

  • Centralized Management Platform – A unified platform that integrates data across the automation ecosystem, enabling real-time monitoring, lifecycle management, and performance optimization to provide insights that fuel strategic decision making.

“As a growing number of businesses embrace robotic assets across a variety of industrial applications – warehousing, manufacturing, sorting, security, cleaning – there is clear need for a simplified solution to effectively deploy and manage these units,” said Joe Foster, Holman vice president of robotics. “Our vision is to be a trusted strategic partner who provides organizations the expertise and resources they need to deploy robotic assets faster, more easily, and with confidence as they embrace the potential of industrial automation.”
