Asset tracking delivers large ROI
Problem: Before the installation, they hired contract labor to do a physical/paper-based inventory that resulted in a 20% margin of error. Due to the dynamic movement of their equipment, accuracy was a challenge. Inventory was done annually and took 6 weeks.
Solution: While competitors offered a solution based on pricing alone, they chose Ryzex to do the ADC installation because of their technical expertise and competitive pricing. The company had no background in ADC and leaned on Ryzex for product selection guidance. They chose Intermec's 740s/750s with color screen for their user friendly, ruggedized PDA design. Their regional distribution facilities are equipped with WiFi access points, and the system is interfacing to their Oracle ERP application software.
