Improve Route Accounting And DSD Cost-Effectiveness With Mobility Technology

By Zebra Technologies Corporation

Companies of all types and sizes are realizing the benefits that mobility technology can deliver to their enterprise. The impact is especially strong for route accounting organizations, where mobile workers frequently interact with customers. Fact is, accuracy and productivity lead to profitability in direct store delivery (DSD) and route accounting operations.

In the grocery channel alone, DSD represents 24 percent of unit sales and 52 percent of retail profits. Revenue and cash flow improve measurably if DSD sales representatives make just one more stop per day. Reducing invoice and inventory errors also reduces operating expenses by saving time for mobile and administrative staff, and by improving inventory availability.
