RedPrarie’s press releases brag that theirs is “the fastest growing” supply chain company in the world.
And they have a lot of evicence to back it up: The company recently launched an automated RFID labeling system at one of Ocean Spray’s warehouse facilities. That’s a lot of cranberry juice, but more importantly, represents the need for companies like RP to provide end-to-end RFID systems (from tagging goods to managing the data, to integrating with back0end hardware and software).
These days, the Lawrenceville, N.J. corporation’s also improving itself by adding voice commands ot its Warehouse-Edge product line, recently teaming with Voxware Inc., a supplier of software for voice-driven logistics.
