Motorola MC70 User Manual

A new class of device...a new level of efficiency

For companies that need to deliver goods and packages, protecting profitability is a never-ending challenge. Already faced with slim profit

margins, companies must find a way to manage rising fuel and insurance costs and meet customer demands for better service — without

increasing the cost of services in order to remain competitive.

The MC70 Enterprise Digital Assistant (EDA) from Motorola is the first in a new class of devices uniquely suited to drive productivity into multiple

key functional areas of companies involved in the delivery of everything from packages to office supplies and flowers. This EDA offers task

workers (non-managers focused on specific business tasks, such as delivering packages, receiving incoming shipments or performing vehicle

maintenance) the true anywhere anytime voice and data communications required to drive inefficiencies out of and profitability into

dispatch/routing, shipping/receiving, pick-up/proof of delivery and fleet maintenance functions, all in a compact lightweight yet rugged device.

The MC70 is designed for all-day every day use in the in the field and in the truck, as well as on the loading dock and out on the tarmac.

In addition to increasing productivity, the MC70 also reduces the capital

and operational expenditures typically associated with providing mobile

voice and data communications. By leveraging the power of voice and

data convergence, this all-in-one combination mobile phone, PDA,

computer, scanner and imager eliminates the need to purchase, manage

and maintain cell phones and mobile computers for mobile workers. And

Motorola’s Mobility Software Platform (MSP) dramatically simplifies and

reduces the costs of managing mobile devices. MSP’s web-based

centralized command center enables IT to remotely deploy, monitor and

troubleshoot all MC70 devices.

In this application brief, we will examine how the MC70 can improve your

profitability and your customer service levels without increasing costs by:

• Increasing driver and field service worker productivity

• Reducing costly data and shipping errors

• Improving truck maintenance for better utilization

• Providing real time visibility into freight status, movement and chain

of custody

…allowing you to achieve true competitive advantage.

Dispatch and routing — better asset

utilization and more deliveries per day

The dispatch function typically involves heavy paperwork — from planning,

routing and scheduling of loads to the creation of load plans that are

processed into a paper manifest for the day’s deliveries for each truck.
