Wireless new combination Tim Wing Logistics Informationization (2003-06-30 15:45:44)
The biggest difference between modern logistics and traditional logistics is to use various information technology as the core, apply data acquisition system, E-Commerce, Electronic Data Exchange (EDI), Warehouse Management System (WMS), Supply Chain Management System (SCM , The global positioning system (GPS) and other information such as logistics monomer, logistics process information, logistics network data, logistics center management digitization, and ultimately enabling "logistics" and "information flow" integration and "integration". Among them, immediate acquisition and delivery of data is the core of the informationization of the logistics industry. Since data collection requirements are immediate, it is a flow job, so wireless technology is increasingly popular in the logistics industry. There are usually a special acquisition device for this job. However, a combination of price is started to appear, breaking through the integrated product. For example, a mobile phone, a size such as a key such as a key, a combination of software, can form a good solution with all the features of the dedicated device. Motorola offers 388 mobile phones, Gao Likou provides 1504 scanner connection data cable, discrimination of front-end software and interface access method. Software includes: scanning through mobile phone to the background (up to 3 options, more than 3 additional charges), data query (up to 3 options, more than 3 additional charges), user identification, background interface protocol. Sales, the sales channels of three companies were aged. Currently, the partners in this model have high Likiyuan, Disons and Symbol. Motorola believes that the logistics industry has the following characteristics: "low cost", "multi-function" and "mobile" wireless application technology; the data summary and analysis of the urgent time is needed; there is a powerful background database platform to quickly Processing, division and delivery information; terminals should be small, easy to carry, easy to operate; networks to cover the country, real-time fast, low cost. The trend of the application of wireless technology in the future logistics industry is: the first step, get rid of the previous manual record and paper copy of the paper, the second step, the data of information is recorded and statistics (through bar code scan); third Step, establish a background database platform, statistics, summary, analysis, and settlement of all companies; fourth steps, realizing digital management in vehicles and goods in the library; fifth step, using a platform similar to MOTO388 mobile phone, You can call all the resources in the background database at any time; the final goal, to meet the paperless office on the logistics industry. Partners Gao Lijun believes that because it is integrated into scheme rather than integrated into a product, this application cost is low, the price is only half of the common equivalent integrated products. But compares to integrated products, stability is very inferior. On the channel, the channels of Motorola, Gao Liyuan and Disresids are jointly promoted, and the three channels have different channels, and there is an invisible coverage. At the same time, this technique is loosely cooperated to adopt the model of their respective product profits, so it will not form a session. (Liu Wei)
