Expedited Packages purchases MobileFrame to automate their Proof of Delivery
Expedited Packages has chosen MobileFrame to automate their Proof of Delivery processes. Prior to adopting MobileFrame’s platform, Expedited Packages had 700 drivers using an outdated Palm application that lacked wireless capabilities and operated only in batch-mode. They also had 200 people using a hosted application for which they had to pay the vendor for every change; often times, the vendor would refuse to make the requested changes unless it benefited their entire customer base! Expedited Packages recognized that it had become necessary to adopt a more robust mobility solution, one which wouldn’t hold them hostage to the vendor’s whims. With MobileFrame, Expedited Packages will be able to utilize the latest mobility technologies to implement a full-featured POD mobile application that closely integrates with their existing dispatch software.
Although application development tools are commonplace, those tools require costly, time-consuming development to create business applications. Moreover, such business solutions tend to be inflexible, requiring expensive custom programming whenever business processes change. As business processes evolve, MobileFrame’s software provides users with unparalleled flexibility to create new mobile applications of any degree of complexity, incorporating any mix of business processes, and to make changes to those applications on-the-fly. With its flexibility and ease of use, MobileFrame’s enterprise mobility software will allow Expedited Packages to quickly deploy their Proof of Delivery mobile applications and make changes as needed, without time-consuming and expensive development efforts.
“This is an unfortunate situation we see all too often – an organization purchases a hard-coded solution from a vendor and is held hostage by costly development fees for even slight changes to the application. With MobileFrame, organizations can build their own mobile applications, make changes as needed, and the total cost of ownership is greatly reduced. In addition, our platform includes robust administrative and mobile device management features that ensure the success of their mobility projects.”
