Leadership Comments

"The way warehouses run has changed faster than the technology used to measure them, and that gap is what drew us to this category," said Sean Barkman, a Partner at Ballast Point Partners who joins Takt's Board of Directors.

"Warehouses generate more data than ever, but the people responsible for their performance still struggle to see where operations are going off track in time to change the outcome," said Glynn LoPresti, co-founder and CEO of Takt.
