take the store inventory count to determine how much product is needed
to replenish the stock, then pick the items from their truck and make
the delivery. The previous solution did not allow for signature capture
and it had limited print functionality. Both features were important
when evaluating new solutions because they wanted to collect payments,
capture customer signatures and leave behind a printed receipt. They
also wanted a solution that gave them full control over the applications
deployed without paying a vendor for each and every change.
MobileFrame
Solution
Hunt
Brothers Pizza selected MobileFrame’s platform because it eliminates
custom programming through an intuitive, user friendly point-and-click
desktop. MobileFrame is a complete solution, which means that everything
required to manage the mobile deployment is built in, eliminating
the need to purchase any third party applications to manage mobile
projects. Some of those features include real-time Instant Messaging,
Remote Device Management, Synchronization Calendaring and an Integration
Wizard that allows quick and painless integrations to any OLEDB/ODBC
compliant database. MobileFrame's software enables user to capture
photographs, annotate on photos, record voice notes, sketch on templates
or blank sketchpads, scan barcodes and capture digital signatures.
Since
MobileFrame’s single platform can be used to deploy an unlimited
number of mobile applications, Hunt Brothers is also deploying applications
to collect store survey data and truck mileage. Some of the benefits
they’ve realized include:
- More
visibility into inventory levels at the stores and on the trucks
-
Better control over inventory shrinkage
-
Immediate access to data due to the fast sync engine
-
End of Day reports are now available to management and include
customer signatures which is important when customers call accounting
with questions
- Integration
to Microsoft Dynamics GP (Great Plains) made the entire mobile
data collection process extremely efficient
"Our
previous mobile application was a canned solution that required
us to pay the vendor for all changes, which was very expensive
over time. We wanted a solution that was more feature rich and
would give us more control over our applications. We selected
MobileFrame’s platform because it is not only easy to use
but robust at the same time and it allowed us to use unlimited
logic without restraint. Our direct store delivery applications
contain a great deal of logic that is unique to our company
and we no longer have to rely on a vendor to make changes for
us."
