Descartes Systems Group has announced that Descartes (News - Alert) MobileLink has achieved Enterprise Mobility validation via completing Motorola's Enterprise Mobility Validated Solution Program—including joint testing at the Motorola (News
- Alert) Solution Center located in Holtsville, N.Y.
For Motorola's ES400 enterprise mobile computer, Descartes MobileLink was granted the Enterprise Mobility validation. Thanks to this designation, the company can now assure customers and partners of system interoperability between Motorola mobile computers and MobileLink solution, according to company officials.
Part of the company’s mobile and wireless fleet management suite, Descartes MobileLink provides integrated two-way wireless communication between dispatchers and the field.
Company officials said that the solution enhances logistics execution through real-time data exchange with remote personnel.
Because the entire enterprise is up-to-date on delivery status and truck/driver location, companies can rely on actual performance data. In addition, they can also improve on-time performance and predict delivery windows accurately, said company officials.
“The Motorola Enterprise Mobility Validation is a significant achievement as it assures seamless integration, faster solution deployment and higher end-user satisfaction," said Ken Wood, senior vice president for product strategy at Descartes in a release.
Motorola's Enterprise Mobility Validated Solutions Program enables partners to test and validate their mobility solutions on Motorola products, helping ensure interoperability and meet customer application-specific needs.
In collaboration with Motorola engineering teams, Descartes MobileLink has been tested and co-validated on Motorola’s ES400 enterprise mobile computer.
Descartes is a provider of global trade compliance, supply chain execution and mobile resource management services.
Last year in June, the company launched advanced technology with functionality that spans from optimized planning to dispatch and automated vehicle location (AVL), integrated with mobile technology that addresses a wide array of global positioning satellite (GPS)-enabled requirements.
