Transportation
Eliminate distracting paperwork and communicate updates from the field for efficient back-office scheduling
Communication between the planning department and the truck drivers on the road is crucial. GSM enables verbal communication and orders are sent out to the mobile devices using WiFi. Distributors can give feedback, confirm orders and deliveries and immediately send back the data to the office for further processing. Reports are generated automatically and coupled with customer data, accessible at any location. This creates a transparent environment, with real-time communication, reducing errors and complexity.

GPS
An incorporated Global Positioning System allows workforces to easily find their destination. In preferred cases also absolute GPS times are integrated into the company application. The key benefit of GPS in Opticon solutions is that the workforce automatically records the geographical location with their other registrations, like adding real-world coordinates to the scanned data. The availability of this type of data enhances the tracking & tracing capabilities and analysis of logistic moves throughout the world.
Opticon solutions offer full communication technologies. One device can integrate a cell phone, PDA, computer, barcode scanner or imager and do all the jobs that are required on the road or every other work spot. Entering updates in the field optimizes back-office scheduling. Signature capture allows electronic proof of delivery, speeding up the data process and creating work-efficiency.
