Transportation challenges keep increasing with climbing fuel prices, driver shortages, and the need to reduce excess product in the supply chain. Having an effective and efficient dispatch system in place that delivers visibility to operations, drivers, and product is essential. Benefits of an efficient dispatch system include efficiency in staging outbound trailers, increasing accuracy of trailer loads, and optimizing driver delivery and pick-up routes and schedules. Companies can speed up operations, reduce errors and even schedule route drivers for extra pickups without negatively impacting delivery schedules.

Using Intermec's mobile computing technology, drivers are able to record real-time proof of delivery and customer receipt confirmation to order processing systems, eliminating follow-up calls and other delays in tracking deliveries and reducing the order-to-cash cycle. By deploying Intermec's delivery products, fleets are becoming more responsive, with WWAN radios for real-time dispatch-and-delivery coordination with messaging or voice communications, decreased travel time and expense with GPS, and improved accuracy with RFID and bar code scanning.

Intermec offers 4 radios in a rugged handheld computer and with our WWAN toolkit customers can pick the radio network they want – enabling the longest "cell-phone" battery life in the industry, all without application alteration.

Intermec products are used in a wide range of Private Fleet applications, including:

• Delivery
• Inventory Management
• Asset Tracking
• Labor Tracking
• Product Labeling and Tracking
