Xplore Technologies Corp. (XPLR) Wins 2013 Supply & Demand Chain 100 Award From SDCE Magazine For Ruggedized Tablet Deployment

Xplore Technologies, widely known for their extremely robust iX104C5 series of ruggedized, powerful, and long-lasting tablet PCs, was most pleased to announce to markets the reception of the Supply & Demand Chain Executive’s (SDCE) coveted Supply & Demand Chain 100 Award for 2013 today, as XPLR has done a superb job of cutting costs and improving efficiency in the supply chain industry, leading to handsome ROI upside for one customer in particular.

In partnership with S3Edge’s amazing tablet-centric software that let the client drastically improve product management and shipping through a reduction in time and expense, as well as by reducing safety and errors risks, XPLR’s deployment of customized, iX104C5 ultra-rugged tablets to this particular customer, an HVAC and refrigeration solutions provider, helped produce truly noteworthy results. No wonder the editorial staff at SDCE picked this case, where Xplore’s ultra-rugged tablets have vastly improved overall productivity while simultaneously slashing operational costs. These tablets are easily docked onto the customer’s forklifts as well, a unique advantage over rivals in the space that shows just how committed XPLR is to pushing the envelope, especially in the supply chain arena.

The over 200 submissions for this year’s award were judged, as always, on a weighted basis, with 40% being the extent of the project results and impact on the business, 30% being how ambitious and how large of a scope the project was, and 20% for how creative the tech or services employed were (remaining 10% for clarity of submission).

President and CEO of XPLR, Mark Holleran, underscored how much help the dockable iX104C5′s were on the warehouse floor, enabling the client to also have total supply chain situational awareness via an RFID system, with results as high as a 30% overall improvement in productivity loading outgoing product. Rugged devices like those developed by XPLR are clearly becoming the industry standard, especially in such applications, largely due to the exceptional long-term ROI metrics and XPLR is omnipresently aware of how important survivability of the device is in a hectic workplace.

Holleran further emphasized how the devices can easily withstand the intense vibrations experienced while riding along on the forklifts, as well as how ruggedly designed the screens are for taking all that touching. Holleran also tipped his hat to the extremely error-free S3Edge custom software, which requires very little IT footwork to maintain, meaning the units can stay deployed in the field with a ridiculous amount of overall uptime.

The tablet is an indispensible facet of the emerging supply chain space and it is obvious that you want the most hardcore device you can get, something that can really take the punishment of a difficult or dangerous work environment and these babies have the software environment intuitiveness as well as usability required to really seal the deal. It is not surprising that the customers are flocking in droves to XPLR’s line of tablets. This recognition by SDCE is a clear nod from the industry and investors can expect to hear more out of XPLR as they continue to land projects by providing supply chain management professionals the in-depth analysis, perspectives, and objective case studies needed for them to grasp the real logistical possibilities available today in supply and demand chain enablement.
