UTi Sun Couriers, a division of UTi Worldwide, is Southern Africa's largest courier company, specializing in moving express freight to and from any address in South Africa or overseas. With branches throughout the country, UTi Sun has built its business on timely and reliable deliveries.
To further enhance customer service, the courier decided it was time to replace an antiquated radio trunking system and approximately 800 outdated handheld computers. In its place, UTi Sun needed a technologically advanced parcel tracking system with the ability to confirm deliveries in real-time.
UTi Sun Couriers management tapped Intermec partner ProScan Systems to design, equip and implement the new system. ProScan is a leader in barcoding, RFID, data collection, wireless networking, and mobile technologies, and is the sole distributor for Intermec products in South Africa.
The integrator – along with Intermec and MTN, Africa's largest cellular network – delivered the first phase in one of the largest and most advanced combined WLAN and GPRS mobile communication and data collection systems in the country. The system features Intermec 761 handheld computers.
