Barcoded seals
Get Me Connected provides Wi-Fi coverage at corporate events and festivals.
Adam Steadman, founder and CEO, was looking for a solution to manage his hardware after some hairy experiences setting up, when mission-critical cabling and adapters had been left behind.
“After a few tests it became clear that barcode would be the best solution. We chose a security seal, being a more rugged, all-weather carrier than a self-adhesive label.
‘Scanning a barcode brings you into close contact with your equipment, so that you can quickly see if it has incurred damage and requires replacement before being loaded up for the next event. Unisto’s Medio barcoded seals has streamlined our service and thankfully made emergency trips back to base, or same-day couriers for components we have left behind, a thing of the past.”
Using its current integrated solution, Get Me Connected can group together equipment on its system, creating a pick-list from a computer enquiry that gives full traceability of all components required. For example, a satellite broadband modem, compatible cabling and power supply all need to be scanned into the transit tote box before the computer confirms the satellite modem kit as complete.
