\"warehouse<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Warehouse operators know creating a connected workforce is the key to greater efficiency. Research for a Zebra Technologies 2024 Vision Study<\/a> found that 77% of warehouse decision makers see equipping their teams with mobile devices as an onramp to automation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Furthermore, 80% have planned investments in new tech to increase their competitiveness. However, at a time of economic uncertainty, making the best use of those investments counts. The Device as a Service model is a budget-friendly, future-proof way to equip a mobile workforce with warehouse tablets.\u00c2\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Warehouse Tablets Enable Organizations to Meet Today\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s Challenges\u00c2\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Deploying warehouse tablets is the key to solving some of the industry\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s biggest problems. It eliminates paper-based processes that add time to workflows and create human error opportunities. Additionally, warehouse tablets increase employee productivity, which is particularly important during the labor shortage. They also allow a warehouse team to update inventory data in real-time, providing management and customers with much-needed visibility for smart decision making. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

To provide maximum value, however, warehouse tablets must be purpose-built. In addition to a rugged design for standing up to use in a harsh environment, warehouse tablets must be ergonomic. Employees need both hands to do their jobs safely and efficiently, so it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s often more practical and safer to mount tablets on forklifts or workstations on wheels or provide an easy way to carry them, such as wearing a holster. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rugged tablets for the warehouse also include multiple connectivity options, including Bluetooth, 4G or 5G, and Wi-Fi 6. In addition, they include security features, such as multifactor authentication (MFA), to ensure that only authorized personnel can use them.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The evolution of warehouse tablets has also given administrators more effective ways to deploy and keep them operational. Services enable centralized management for fast configuration and provisioning and for providing insights into device health, security, and usage. With these solutions, warehouse operators always have the assurance that tablets are charged, in good operating condition, and secure. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Device as a Service Model Breaks Down Barriers to Tech Upgrades<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Although warehouse tablets have evolved into valuable tools for competitive businesses, making a capital expenditure (CAPEX) for new devices can put an upgrade out of reach for some companies. The Device as a Service model eliminates those barriers and makes new technology upgrades possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the Device as a Service model, companies:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Replace a CAPEX with an OPEX<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Instead of paying for devices outright, warehouses pay a monthly fee to use tablets. The provider bundles everything the warehouse needs, including hardware, software, and management tools, into one package for one cost. Replacing capital expenditures with an operating expense makes it more likely for CFOs to approve new devices more quickly. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Leave maintenance and service to the provider<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Device as a Service model includes solution service and support. As a result, the warehouse\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s IT team isn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t burdened with deploying and maintaining new devices \u00e2\u20ac\u201c and there aren\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t any surprise costs for repairs that devices occasionally need due to everyday use. In addition, with the provider covering maintenance, repairs, and support, warehouses typically see a lower TCO when they choose a Device as a Service solution than when they purchase solutions outright and maintain them with in-house staff. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aren\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t locked into obsolete technology<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The rate of technological advancements is accelerating, making an outright purchase riskier. The Device as a Service model allows businesses to upgrade after their contract term, often 36 months, so they always use the best tech available for their operations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Can scale more easily<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This model allows a warehouse to deploy the tablets it needs now and plan strategically to add more devices as demand increases. The Device as a Service provider can manage that plan economically and according to the company\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s technology roadmap. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Will benefit from the provider\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s lifecycle management services<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

An experienced provider will manage warehouse tablets from selection to decommissioning, safely removing data and handling recycling or disposal responsibly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
