Executive Summary<\/h3>\n

Tricor Courier and Cargo wanted to automate and expand their capabilities in delivery services. They were in need of a paperless confirmation solution consisting of a mobile computer<\/a> for signature capture as well as a portable printer<\/a> for on-location receipt confirmation for their customers.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The Business Challenge<\/h3>\n

Tricor came to Barcodes Inc<\/a> seeking a solution to automate and streamline live package tracking<\/a> and confirmation with a limited paper trail. The issue that they faced was that many of their paper delivery notifications were getting misplaced, leaving them with nothing to give to the customer. They needed a mobile computer to automatically update their server after every delivery route was completed, showing confirmation and signature capture as well as provide the customer with a physical receipt. A successful solution would be rolled out to all 50 of their drivers, each with numerous routes in the South San Francisco area.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Solution<\/h3>\n

Tricor had already written custom software for delivery confirmation and needed the software to run on a Windows Mobile platform with integration of the laser scan engine on whichever device BarcodesInc provided them. BarcodesInc helped them integrate Unitech PA500 mobile computers<\/a> with the proper scan engine and paired the devices via bluetooth to Zebra RW420 printers<\/a>. Once a confirmation and exchange was made for the customer, the device was able to confirm the location of delivery and capture their signature. Once the signature was captured a delivery confirmation receipt was printed. This not only streamlined the delivery confirmation but allowed the drivers to complete their routes faster and increased productivity nearly 75%.<\/p>\n

Benefits<\/h3>\n

With the successful deployment of the solution, Tricor has now expanded their business to a larger portion of San Francisco and increased their customer satisfaction.<\/p>\n

The Future<\/h3>\n

With our relationship with Tricor, we are able to provide them with unlimited technical support whenever they need it, and we continue to provide their hardware as they expand.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
