Rich Products Corporation is one of the world’s largest family-owned food companies and a leading global supplier to the food service, in- store bakery, retail, and industrial marketplaces. With 11,000 employees across the globe, Rich Products has an extensive mobile workforce and approximately 2,600 devices under management.
The number of personal devices used within Rich Products was growing rapidly. Leadership and IT management had little visibility into the expense management of these assets and was being hit with unforeseen costs. Due to the increasing complexity of mobility, they recognized that they needed a partner capable of handling not only current needs and processes efficiently and effectively, but one that could also scale as the company continued to expand.
Rich Products leveraged Gartner as its guide for selecting a vendor when it came to Managed Mobility Services (MMS). A Tangoe team was assigned to drill down into the hierarchy of associates, billing structures, payment models, procurement methods, and all other operational processes that would need to be transitioned. Following a comprehensive assessment, Tangoe integrated all Rich Products’ data and assets onto its systems and platforms within three months. Rich Products’ managers characterized it as a smooth, efficient process performed with due diligence. Tangoe provided them with a phased approach that could be adapted over time and to ensure a smooth transformation without rework.
