Scanners (mobile computers), Printers & Labels
Xceliware in conjunction with our partners is able to lead you through the process of selecting and integrating the "hardware" that goes into running a Warehouse Management System. This includes scanning mobile computers, wireless access points for the warehouse, pulling cable, labels and label printers, etc. While our clients are free to obtain this equipment on their own, most ask us to lead this portion of the project as well so to avoid having to coordinate multiple vendors.
Implementation Approach
Xceliware utilizes a tried and tested implementation methodology, known as Phase5 to guarantee a successful delivery of your solution to your end-users. This methodology, while tuned to meet the needs of data collection functionality, is based on IEEE Standards and incorporates a variety of industry best practices while focusing on the clients’ needs.
These 5 Phases are:
- Plan
- Design
- Implement
- Test
- Deploy
Xceliware will work with your project team to document requirements and assist in the implementation of standard and customized transaction sets into a “Conference Room Pilot” environment for testing. A complete solution requirements document will be jointly created, and design of the process flow and transaction sets will begin.
Xceliware will provide technical resources to perform the initial installation of software into your server environment, as well as assist with configuration and network issues. This will allow the implementation of a “development” server to allow for the project team to develop and test basic processes in a protected environment. Key users will be involved in this testing process to ensure acceptance by the eventual users of the system.
Following the completion of testing and training, our consulting staff will assist in the roll out of the solution in the CRP environment and into the initial facility. A plan will then be developed to assist in developing an appropriate plan for the implementation of the solution in conjunction with the rollout to the other locations. Performing the initial installation process in this fashion will expedite the training and conversion process, and allow the most cost effective use of Xceliware and your resources.
