Enterprise Mobility & AIDC
Handheld Mobile Computers
Enterprise handheld devices with integrated scanning for warehouse, retail, field and operational workflows.
Overview
Handheld types
An enterprise mobile computer combines a scan engine, a managed operating system and enterprise wireless in one device built for shift work. It replaces paper lists and consumer phones in receiving, picking, counting and proof-of-delivery workflows.
Selection depends on the workflow, the scanning distance, the environment and the systems the device must talk to. Novatelia reviews these requirements and coordinates suitable options with technology partners.

Answers
Frequently Asked Questions
01What is an enterprise mobile computer?
An enterprise mobile computer is a handheld device built for work: it combines a barcode scan engine, a managed operating system, enterprise Wi-Fi or cellular connectivity and a durable housing, so workers can capture data at the point of activity and update systems such as a WMS or ERP in real time.
02What is a rugged handheld?
A rugged handheld is a mobile computer designed to keep working after drops, dust, water and temperature extremes. Ruggedness is stated by the manufacturer through ingress protection (IP) ratings and drop specifications, which should be checked against the actual working environment.
03How is a handheld connected to our warehouse or ERP system?
Handhelds usually run a mobile client or browser application supplied with the WMS or ERP, connected over enterprise Wi-Fi. Integration scope depends on the system vendor; Novatelia coordinates network readiness, device enrollment and integration with the relevant partners.
