Tompkins Robotics has partnered with Primary Sight to bring a local presence to Australian and New Zealand market.

Kmart Australia recently deployed Tompkins Robotics’ tSort mobile automation to support its distributed logistics network at the height of spiking demands. The project was executed flawlessly and gave rise to multiple requests for additional projects in the region.  

Mike Futch, Tompkins Robotics President and CEO, and Thompson Brockman, Tompkins Robotics VP of operations, recognised the advantage of finding an experienced, professional partner who could operate locally and deliver exceptional results in selecting Primary Sight.  

"The partnership between Primary Sight and Tompkins Robotics creates an exciting product offering for the ANZ region that is more flexible, scalable, and cost effective than the traditional solutions on the market,” says Brockman. “Primary Sight’s values and customer-first approach align strongly with ours."

Sean Hewat, head of solutions - ANZ, and the team at Primary Sight have many years of industry experience bringing innovative, cost-effective solutions from concept through implementation in the Australian and New Zealand market.

"Tompkins Robotics’ values and customer-first approach align strongly with ours," he says.

The two companies will work together to bring transformational robotic technology with disciplined project management principles to execute projects and bring value to their customers.
