Energy experts moving sustainable energy forward

Everything you interact with comes from somewhere, from the food you eat to the tires on your car. It is transported from the factory and warehouse to your home through a complex logistics network that relies on various equipment from the freight trucks to the forklifts that operate 24/7.

At UgoWork, we envision a sustainable world driven by intelligent resource management and efficiency. We are committed to reducing the supply chain carbon footprint. We are passionate about energy and its cost to our clients.

We believe organizations can win the sustainability challenge by seamlessly integrating energy savings into their operations without compromising performance.

We provide the most advanced, cost-efficient, and proven energy management program in the material handling industry.

Moving forward the sustainable energy solutions for the material handling industry. 

Philippe Beauchamp and Rami Jarjour are the brains behind UgoWork. As trained electrical engineers, they put their in-depth understanding of batteries’ electromechanical components—specifically rechargeable Li-ion batteries—at the service of an industry at the supply chain center: material handling. 

With one of the most discussed topics in MH recently, Philippe and Rami address the future of reliable energy for the supply chain. With UgoWork, lithium-ion, fleet data, and applied energy know-how join forces to ensure uptime and increase companies’ production and efficiency in their material handling needs. 

Before co-founding UgoWork, Philippe and Rami worked for Alstom Power, a global provider of industry-focused energy solutions, where they advised in the development of power solutions for hydro-electrical projects. They hold a bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering from Laval University and pursued master-level studies on energy management at Sherbrooke University. They are also members of l’Ordre des ingénieurs du Québec and active members of Propulsion Québec, the cluster for electric and smart transportation.

Today, they bring together a team with complementary expertise and skills around a shared vision. UgoWork’s mission is to provide the most advanced and sustainable energy solution to support the supply chain’s needs. Together, they challenge and rethink the energy supply model in material handling and provide a solution for the industry’s specific needs.
