REAL-WORLD APPLICATIONS 1. Retail: Eliminating the checkout bottleneck
A regional specialty retailer deployed mobile computers for floor associates, enabling them to check inventory, locate products across store locations, and process transactions without returning to a register. Wait times dropped significantly. Associate productivity rose because staff could complete the full sales cycle—product lookup, recommendation, checkout—without leaving the customer’s side. 2. Healthcare: Precision patient tracking with RFID A large hospital network implemented RFID-enabled wristbands across emergency and inpatient departments. The system eliminated manual ID verification steps, reduced medication errors tied to patient misidentification, and improved documentation accuracy. Nursing staff completed bedside data entry in real time, keeping patient records continuously current. What does a patient misidentification incident cost your facility—in liability, in compliance risk, in patient outcomes? RFID wristbanding eliminates the manual step that creates the risk. 3. Logistics: Securing a 12-location device fleet A national fulfillment company managing 800+ mobile devices across 12 warehouse locations deployed a cloud- based MDM solution. The IT team gained centralized visibility into every device—remote lock, wipe, app deployment, and compliance enforcement from a single dashboard. On-site IT visit frequency dropped by 60%. The savings were redirected to strategic infrastructure projects.
PARTNER ACTION: Every mobility deal should close with three components: (1) the right device for the environment, (2) an MDM solution to manage and protect it, and (3) a connectivity plan that ensures it works wherever the worker goes. Selling only the device is selling one-third of the deal.
