 Problem
This Leading Furniture Manufacturer with over 15
manufacturing facilities and service centers, needed to
upgrade their data collection system. Their Legacy
equipment used proprietary communications and a
programming language that was no longer supported.
They asked Miles Technologies to determine if new
technology would offer greater hardware flexibility and be
easier to support.
Solution
Miles recommended that they standardize on a programming language that was “open” and
could be used with a variety of equipment. They recommended standardizing on the GTL
Programming Toolkit which offered easy integration without re-programming each
manufactures data collection equipment.
Benefits
 The Miles Solution gave the customer the ability to select from
multiple hardware vendors. This included products from Symbol and
PSC. Miles introduced equipment that provided functionality and
performance that fit the customers evolving requirements and to
meet competitive market demands. Some of the other benefits
included:
- Reduced TCO (total cost of ownership)
- Increased flexibility in equipment selection
Miles Value Add
 Miles was able to offer a variety of equipment because of their experience
as an integrator and preferred partner status with many of the data
collection manufacturers. They have experience in creating “open”,
flexible, integrated solutions.
