Maintain accurate data on goods moving through your supply chain
The real time monitoring of goods as they move from the factory or field to the shop floor requires a highly sophisticated mobile operation.
Mobile devices monitor stock or produce in transit (on the road or in a warehouse) all the way to the shop floor. They capture vital information during shelf management, queue busting and loyalty management. And home delivery drivers require reliable scheduling and routing tools.
Software failure or device lockup anywhere along this supply chain will cause significant disruption to activities. This will impact upon efficiency, delivery targets and stress levels - as well as causing the loss of real time status on goods.
B2M’s mprodigy mobile device management system brings all mobile equipment under a single administrative structure.
It will get a mobile device operating again after a software ‘glitch’ by remotely resetting or reloading it instead of bringing the device back to base.
S&A Produce, one of Europe’s largest strawberry producers, uses mprodigy to achieve full traceability on every punnet of fruit as it moves from the field, through processing to the retailer’s shelf. See case study on S&A Produce.
Other benefits of mprodigy:
- A central operations team can remotely manage hundreds or thousands of mobile devices out on the road or in depots
- Quickly identify areas of best practice using mprodigy’s operational monitoring capabilities
- Recognise where problems are occurring and build plans to address the issues
- Monitor and fine-tune improvements to new working practices, applications or business tools
Improved mobile device management can translate directly into savings off the bottom line delivered through improved efficiency, enhanced asset control and superior customer service.
