Barcoding has been a great partner in helping us decide on and standardize our use of the Android platform. It’s allowed my development team to focus their skills on development for a single platform rather than splitting their energy.

RESULTS

The devices Fleet Farm utilizes today are loaded with powerful business tools, such as Workforce Connect, which enable voice communications between employees, the payroll application, inventory management application, price checking capabilities, a camera for taking photos of damaged items or shelves that need attention, and a host of other built-in technologies for greater business intelligence.

In creating a unified development platform, Fleet Farm consolidated its teams’ expertise around Android for more efficient growth. This, in turn, created a more seamless application experience for both Fleet Farm employees and customers. They have also created a stronger partnership between store team members, corporate and IT staff.

“Barcoding has been a great partner in helping us decide on and standardize our use of the Android platform,” said Chris Zimmerman, IT manager for Fleet Farm. “It’s allowed my development team to focus their skills on development for a single platform rather than splitting their energy.”

As a result of the streamlined device solution, the Fleet Farm team has been able to rapidly develop around the platform to produce, in tandem with Barcoding, innovative applications and features driven by the company’s business goals.

“We’re doing things with the Zebra devices that have never been done before,” said Zimmerman. “Barcoding was able to provide personalized support while coordinating with Zebra to help bring our vision to life and solve the issues we were seeing across our stores.”
