Ken Knotts, Operations Manager at Daily Equipment, stated that ,the passive GPS solution gave us information after the fact, was cumbersome to use because of the need to pull modules from the vehicles, and did nothing to assist us for dispatch during the day., He added, ,We deployed the Discrete Wireless system company-wide because this real-time system runs itself.We can take action in real-time, whether there is a dispute, an emergency dispatch or employee issue.The Discrete Wireless hosted application was the right solution for a big organization like ours that does not want to deploy software in multiple offices.,
Daily Equipment Company took the solution to the next level by deploying Blackberry handhelds to all the Company,s managers.Mr. Knotts commented that ,Now all managers know in real-time if sales and service technician vehicles left a job early, left home late, or were speeding trying to play catch up., He added ,We feel that our managers now have an incredible tool that enables them to manage their business while in the field or at home.
