Harvest Automation, Practical Software Solutions Announce PartnershipSource: Harvest Automation

Harvest Automation Inc. and Practical Software Solutions have partnered to connect Harvest Knowledge robot data systems with the Grower Vertical for Sage ERP package to develop integrated production optimization tools.

Following on the heels of the successful introduction in 2013 of the HV-100 plant moving robot, in 2014 Harvest Automation will launch Harvest Knowledge — a cloud-based data collection and analysis system which will allow robots to link the work that is being performed to the fields and plants they are working with and report this information back to growers and production planners.

Practical Software Solutions developed Grower Vertical in 2006, when Metrolina Greenhouses of Huntersville, N.C., approached the company to help create horticulture-specific functionality for their ERP system. Practical also provides integrated solutions for HR, Fixed Assets and CRM for the industry.

Grower Vertical provides a customizable, scalable, and full-featured enterprise management system designed for specific needs of the horticulture industry.
