Happy New Year! As many are settling into 2012, RF-SMART has been very busy!  We are happy to announce that North American Coal recently went live with RF-SMART E1 at two of their mining operations in North Dakota!

North American Coal Corporation (NYSE:NC), mines and markets lignite coal primarily as fuel for power generation and provides selected value-added mining services for other natural resources companies. Corporate headquarters are located in Dallas, Texas. North American Coal operates surface lignite mines in North Dakota, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Texas, and also provides dragline mining services for independently owned limerock quarries in Florida.

NAC is using service work orders for ongoing maintenance/repair of large mining equipment.  Items added to these orders will often generate purchase orders for the parts. When the warehouse personnel receives the purchase order, the user is notified of the associated work order and it allows the user to immediately issue the material to the order without any additional transactional input.

While many companies slow down during the holiday season our wonderful and supportive team at RF-SMART continues working hard!  Check out the photo below with two of our team members at the North Dakota location:

With most of us being wrapped up in the holiday spirit, we don’t want to fall behind on our 2012 planning.  As an Oracle Platinum Partner, and a partner of JD Edwards fornearly 30 years, the first event of the New Year for RF-SMART will be our participation in the JD Edwards Partner Summit, at Oracle’s Sun campus in Broomfield, CO.  Last year we had many valuable conversations with Partners—both new and existing— that we otherwise couldn’t have had, if not for the JDE Partner Summit.

The theme for this year’s Summit is “Opportunities Abound”, and we are looking forward to attending sessions about new E1 tools and apps releases, share upgrade best practices, taking some hands-on training classes, and seizing new opportunities in the JDE ecosystem.  If you do attend the conference (and if you are a JDE Partner, it is well worth your time), be sure to say hi to one of the RF-SMART team members—we will be there in full force!

Our customers are enjoying improved scalability and memory management, enhanced logging for technical troubleshooting, and best of all, extended E1 License Plating (LP) functionality. Since we have received many inquiries as how E1 License Plating with RF-SMART can help our customers’ warehouse and manufacturing operations, we will be presenting a webinar on December 6 entitled: “Extend E1 License Plating with RF-SMART.” During this webinar, we will touch on:

• How RF-SMART License Plating is fully integrated into E1 Warehouse Management, Distribution, and Shop Floor, with some  handy functional extensions
• Using LP’s throughout your warehouse and manufacturing operations
• Build shipping pallets, especially for ASN’s, with almost no extra labor
• LP best practices

We worked long and hard on making great videos and judging by the many comments we received, they undoubtedly were received well! In the process of creating these videos I learned a few things along the way – one of them being that the boundaries between customer and vendor are blurred by our similarities. We have the same goals in common which goes back to my post on October 7, 2011. The video you are about to watch is a collaboration of the videos above and highlights what each customer has in common – manual process elimination & gaining real time visibility to name a few. Please review and provide your comments after as we appreciate feedback for future video campaigns we provide, rfsmart.com.

Most recently our team went to Melbourne, Australia to hear how our customers in AU and New Zealand feel about the RF-SMART product and how it can be improved.  We were very excited to share and receive information from our customers!  Most of our customers needed to be reminded about the expansive functionality that RF-SMART has to offer and were really impressed that we cared about how they feel about the product!  While abroad, our team got the chance to visit with over 7 RF-SMART customers (check out some photos below)
