With new technology available, “productivity challenges" no longer need to be so. As you evaluate your work spaces, watch for these seven typical workplace “productivity challenge” scenarios:
1. Workplaces without Wi-fi or only partially mobile workplace.
(i.e. using carts, but equipment is stationary for lack of wireless or battery power)
2. Labeling Processes that require walking back and forth to a printer.
3. Receiving/Shipping operations where labeling is required.
4. Receiving/Shipping operations for breaking down pallets.
5. Retail floors where relabeling of product or shelving is required.
6. Other powered transactional operations which use scanners, scales, printers, etc. repeatedly in high volumes or is inefficient from the equipment remaining in one place.
7. New facilities being planned where significant equipment
(i.e. scanners and printers) will be required. The use of mobility (mobile carts with power) will often lessen the total equipment requirements).
A solution to these productivity challenges is simple implement and the return on investment can be seen quickly. Computer carts with batteries for laptops, PC's, PC tablets, printers, labelers, etc., have been modernized to provide power for up to 12 hours.
