•Case Study: Buffalo Rock Achieves Success With Improved Speed And Accuracy

With 600 routes to roll out over 13 distribution centers in Alabama, Florida and Georgia, the task of updating its mobile delivery application was a daunting task for soft drink bottler Buffalo Rock. But six months later, with all divisions up and running, the nation's largest single-family, privately-owned, Pepsi- Cola bottler is reaping the benefits.

Mike Cairnes, Buffalo Rock's Birmingham Administrative Manager, is impressed with the results since the company replaced its mobile application and handhelds. "It's faster and the drivers don't have to mess with the handhelds so much, which means they can spend more time focusing on the customer."

The AL-based bottler that services a population of more than 5 million, decided to update its mobile application last year after a series of break downs. Kenneth McClain, Project Manager with Buffalo Rock was charged with the task of rolling out the new mobile package over the company's 13 divisions. "It was time to update equipment," explained McClain. "We were using the 4500 Norand (now Intermec) handhelds, which we had been using for years and years and they needed to be replaced."
