Intel's Cutting-Edge Technology for Mobile Computing Enables
Retail Managers to Stay Connected and Productive throughout
the Store and around the Globe
Radiant Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ:RADS) today will highlight the benefits of its Web-based Radiant 6e(TM) retail solution, enhanced by Intel Corporation's latest technology for mobile computing, at the Intel(R) Centrino(TM) mobile technology launch in New York. Radiant was selected by Intel to demonstrate to retailers how improved mobile access to operational information allows field and store managers to improve productivity and gain better control of site operations while on the go. Intel's breakthrough technology helps extend the benefits and functionality of Radiant 6e, enhancing retail managers' effectiveness through anywhere, anytime connectivity.
"Intel Centrino mobile technology enables a dispersed workforce that is on-the-move to be better connected, multiplying the benefits of Radiant 6e's centralized data model," said John Heyman, co-CEO of Radiant. "We believe that this is a very significant advancement for Web-based technologies that will help retailers further improve profitability and customer service."
"Enhancing Radiant 6e with Intel Centrino mobile technology can enable retailers to improve productivity and accelerate response time," said Jon Stine, global retail and consumer package goods industry manager, Intel Corporation. "With wireless technology providing better access to mission-critical information and applications, retail managers can improve visibility into their operations and act on issues before they impact the bottom line."
At times and in places that typically impose disconnected downtime, retail managers can now take further advantage of the real-time enterprise visibility and control provided by Radiant 6e Workforce, Inventory, and Operations Management solutions.
Using notebook PCs based on Intel Centrino mobile technology, retail managers can log on to Radiant 6e to evaluate key store metrics and immediately act on exception-based alerts. Enhanced mobile capabilities turn analysis time into action time, whether a manager is traveling between stores, moving around a store, or working from a remote location. With Intel's latest mobile technology, retailers have a more easily deployed, cost-effective solution that releases field and store managers from back-of-store or field offices, giving them more time for serving customers or managing and coaching staff.
Radiant 6e is an entirely Web-based enterprise application that is architected from the ground up to leverage the benefits of the Web and centralized data management. It allows retail and hospitality businesses to improve processes and decisions throughout their organizations with comprehensive, centralized solutions for managing site operations.
