Freeing the workforce from PCs
June 1st 2008

Misco specialises in online sales of IT solutions, and recently decided to upgrade its warehouse management system, with the help of Spirit Data Capture. "We had been using PCs and printers to carry out our warehouse management," explains Clark Wainwright, the company's MIS administrator, "and decided we needed a solution that would free our workforce from PCs and the associated paperwork.

"We wanted them to have more time to focus on key business activities. We also wanted to put additional warehouse checks into place. As UPC/EAN codes now play a significant role in warehouse operations, using these had also become a priority for us." Spirit proposed the development of a complete wireless infrastructure for the warehouse with Motorola MC9090 mobile computers, to streamline the company's 'pick and pack' operations. The large warehouse required an 18m high scissor lift for the wireless backbone installation – enabling the whole site to be covered by just seven access points.

"Spirit have helped us at every stage of the process," says Clark. "They have found solutions to our problems and have always made themselves readily available to answer any questions, dealing with our queries with patience and expertise."
