In today’s supply chain, the only constant is change. It is how your enterprise can adapt to these changes that will set you apart from your competitors. One means by which to account for changes that occur, whether it be a fork lift failure or something more devastating like a natural disaster, is adopting the use of Vehicle Mount Computers. These devices bring a great deal of flexibility into the picture for all the things that could go wrong or unplanned on a daily basis.
Vehicle Mounted Computers (VMC’s) come in a number of shapes and sizes. From full screen mobile computers to mini tablets, there are many options out there today to choose from, depending on your business needs and your overall space requirements. Vehicle mounted, these devices are ideal for the environmental demands of a traditional distribution center, warehouse, or even a fleet of cars and trucks because they eliminate the concerns of dropping or damaging a handheld data collection device.
Depending on the nature of your operations, Vehicle Mount Computers are built to withstand the harshest conditions that may be placed upon their usage. For example, in a healthcare setting it is imperative that the screens of these devices are resistant to frequent cleanings and disinfecting and have easy to clean, dust proof surfaces. Another attribute that is important if you are on a forklift, construction vehicle or truck, is that these devices are able to withstand the inherent vibrations that these vehicles cause throughout their daily operations.
Vehicle Mount Computers have demonstrated proven success in many industries ranging from healthcare to utility service providers to warehouse operations. Choosing the right solution for your enterprise brings up two very crucial questions: how will the devices integrate with the existing infrastructure in place today and how will they grow with evolving business needs in the future?
