December 06 2016 - 9:00AM
Xplore Technologies Corp. (NASDAQ:XPLR) today announced that one of
the nation’s top 10 electric power and natural gas utility
companies has placed a $1.7 million follow-on order for XSLATE B10
fully rugged tablets, bringing the customer’s total investment in
Xplore solutions to more than $2.7 million in 2016. This is the
second follow-on order placed by the customer this year as part of
an ongoing, multi-year initiative by the customer to increase the
mobility of its field service operations and achieve new cost
savings across its utility operations. Xplore continues to work
closely with the customer to further expand its implementation of
rugged tablets through additional orders.
Noted Mark Holleran, president and COO of Xplore: “This is yet
another example of the tremendous opportunities for rugged tablet
computing in our key end markets, including a growing number of
industry leading companies that continue to expand their
implementation of Xplore solutions to capture greater business
efficiency and profitability while enhancing field service
capabilities. Xplore’s first customer 20 years ago was an electric
utility, and we’re thrilled that we continue to enjoy such an
elevated level of customer confidence in our technology solutions
within the utility sector. Simply put, Xplore rugged tablets
provide an unmatchable, and holistic, mobility experience to field
service personnel.”
Not only has the XSLATE B10 solution provided this utility
customer with their desired return on investment from a financial
perspective, but it has empowered field technicians to more
effectually perform routine business processes that improve overall
service quality and customer satisfaction levels.
Built with unfailing protection in mind, the IP65 and
MIL-STD-810G rated XSLATE B10 rugged tablet PC delivers immediate
asset intelligence to utility dispatch, infrastructure assessment
teams, and repair crews to allow for more efficient and coordinated
efforts. The accompanying in-vehicle docking solution and optional
second battery – both purchased by this customer – as well as the
sealed I/O ports ensure the Intel®-powered Windows® tablet can be
utilized around the clock without disruption, whether the
technician is working on foot in the field, in-route to their next
call, or retrieving inventory from the central garage.
