Don’t Let the Lack of Spare Devices Paralyze Your Workflows

Many organizations struggle to manage their mobile devices such as smartphones, tablets, scanners, ruggedized, wearables, and accessory inventories—whether deployed in the field or a spares pool. Common problems include knowing where devices and accessories are, their current status, and having a comprehensive program to track replacements. Many organizations rely on a confusing assortment of platforms to track inventory, device status, assignment, location, and repair progress.

Then there are the challenges of configuring, kitting, enrolling, provisioning, and redeploying replacement devices. Typically, when a replacement is required, resources are needed to either procure a new device or pull one from inventory to configure, kit, enroll, provision, and ship it. What happens to the broken device in the field? What about the data on the device? Organizations can no longer afford to have equipment floating around unaccounted for and must have a strategy to manage their mobility inventory.
