Transportation challenges just keep climbing along with fuel prices, driver shortages, and the need to reduce excess product. Having an effective and efficient dispatch system in place that delivers visibility to operations and drivers is essential. Benefits include efficiency in staging outbound trucks, increasing accuracy of truck loads, and optimizing driver delivery routes and schedules.

Using Intermec's mobile computing technology for deliveries to stores and customers, drivers are able to record real-time proof of delivery and customer receipt confirmation for 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 communications, decreasing travel time and expense with GPS, and improving accuracy with bar code scanning and RFID.

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

• Delivery Status
