There’s a lot of work that goes into a complete overhaul of a warehouse’s or manufacturing plant’s technology system. There’s a lot of meetings, a lot of planning, a lot of compromising, a lot of testing, and a lot of adjustments. It’s important that every division gets what they need in a way that each can get behind and onboard with. And that takes time.
Sometimes months. Sometimes years.
In the meantime, the workers are stuck with outdated solutions and equipment that continues to age while waiting for the new solution to be implemented. At DCT Solutions Group, we believe that a steady stream of incremental improvements is more valuable and more achievable than waiting for the Big Bang to come along every few years. Improvements that can include new equipment, updated software, modernizing legacy mobile apps, and creating multi-source dashboard applications to help you manage it all.
The benefits to this approach are many. First, it gives your workers it gives your workers immediate access to labor-saving devices and it allows them to get used to new technology on a tiered basis instead of all at once. Second, we at DCT ensure that all new software and equipment is future-proof compatible, ensuring no throw away devices and a solid ROI. Third, it allows us to focus our attention and the technology on the places where you need it most – bringing you the most bang for your buck. The list goes on and on.
A few key areas that many of our clients have benefitted from and can be quickly implemented on an enterprise basis include:
Push to Talk Express from Zebra Technologies
Mobile Device Management (MDM)
The first step in maximizing your mobility solution is to manage all of its components in one central location. DCT can equip you with MDM software that allows your IT administrators to control, secure, and enforce policies on smartphones, tablets and other endpoints with a single console. The result is an optimization of the functionality and security of mobile devices within the enterprise, while protecting the corporate network.
Upgrading Hardware for Speed and Usability
DCT can help your continuous improvement team by measuring and tracking data to provide metrics that show areas in need of improvement or likely to create a block to worker productivity. From there we can assist with technology evaluation, development of a proof of concept and analysis of the results. Smart decisions begin and end with good data. Perhaps most importantly, we can help get the right information to the right person eliminating overwhelming distractions.
START WITH A “PROOF OF CONCEPT”
Before you begin any type of technology upgrade – big or small – it’s best to have our team work with you to create a “Proof of Concept” to validate the proposed solution. A Proof-of-Concept gives you the opportunity to test the effectiveness of a proposed solution to determine whether it’s a good fit for your operations. And while every evaluation is unique, our experience has shown the time and physical labor saved by simple upgrades and improvements can have a real effect on the bottom line.
