Internet
Warehouse management and customer integrations need redundant internet.
The scanners dropped out in aisle fourteen
By the Telecom Agency advisory team
Pickers lose connection at the far end of the building, walk back toward the office to sync, and walk out again. Nobody measured what that costs in a shift.
What a consultant changes
An advisor brings in providers to design wireless coverage for the building as it is racked today, and compares Wi-Fi with private cellular for the job. The warehouse also gets two internet connections, since customers' systems are tied into it. An independent consultant can recommend the technology that fits, not the one a vendor happens to sell.
How Telecom Agency shops the market for warehousing
- The advice
- An advisor brings in providers to survey the building and compares Wi-Fi with private cellular for scanners and vehicles, along with two diverse internet connections for the systems customers depend on.
- The price
- Wireless designs are priced against each other on equal terms, including the cost of ongoing support. Internet circuits are negotiated as a pair.
- The service
- When racking is reconfigured, coverage is rechecked. The advisor manages the carriers and the wireless provider together.
- No fee to you: providers pay the advisor
- Every provider compared, none favoured
- One contact for every carrier
- Reviews and support after the install
