Operations-hours coverage

The challenge
  • Sites spread across cities, many operating outside conventional office hours.
  • Handheld scanners and store IT directly tied to order picking and dispatch.
  • Faults needing on-site attention quickly, with no local IT presence at each site.
What we did
  • Deployed field engineers on city-level beats covering clusters of sites.
  • Held a local spares buffer for handhelds, networking and store peripherals.
  • Aligned support hours to operational hours rather than office hours.
