Laptop Lock-up® – A Tool That Makes Laptops, Notebooks, Handhelds, and E-tools More Efficient by Providing Communications, Battery Charging, and Security in a Computer Storage Cabinet

The more time a mobile workforce is on the job employing their expertise, the more money your company makes. Every minute field technicians are away from the job means less time they spend solving customers’ problems.

Organizations put a premium on getting a mobile field force into the field. Companies equip mobile field workers with the latest and most powerful electronic devices – laptops, notebooks, tablets, PDAs, handhelds, radios, and test equipment. These computers give field technicians extraordinary power to service customers.

Yet these laptops and handhelds bring with them a new set of concerns:

1) The battle to keep data on notebooks updated and company databases refreshed. Communications take time – time that keeps mobile workers out of the field. One large company estimates that their mobile workforce spends a minimum each morning of 15 minutes to one half hour using network connections that communicate the day’s orders and uploading yesterday’s activities. Avoid this time wasted, and a mobile worker gains an extra 60 to 120 hours a year in the field making calls, satisfying customers, and making more money for the company.

2) Charging the notebook's battery. Since the notebook’s battery is charged overnight, the mobile workers get immediately on the road with a fully charged notebook. They start servicing customers right now, they start making your company money right now.

3) Laptops are easily stolen. Organizations must provide for laptop security – convenient, safe and locked computer storage.

4) Computer laptop security cabinets have to be simple to set up and maintain. Computer cabinets that are hard to set-up and maintain make the total cost of ownership soar.

Laptop Lockup provides answers for all these concerns.

1) Laptop Lockup has a patented, coiled communications wiring system providing dial tone or local area network communications connections to laptops, notebooks and handhelds. Mobile workers automatically push or pull work orders from and to their notebooks. They update their notebooks with the latest service bulletins. They do these communications in the most efficient way – unattended during off duty hours.

2) Battery charging is done in the notebook security cabinets during off hours. Notebooks are ready to go as soon as the shift starts.

3) Laptops, notebooks, handhelds, and e-tools are safely locked and secured in the computer cabinet when not in use.

4) Total cost of ownership is drastically reduced by a patented coiled wiring system for both communications and battery charging. There is no necessity to spend hours wiring each drawer by hand because the wiring is already done upon receipt of the Laptop Lockup cabinet. The patented coiled wiring system creates a wire management system that is low maintenance.

Laptop Lock-up – a tool that makes laptops, notebooks, handhelds, and e-tools more efficient, makes mobile workers better able to service customers, and makes organizations more profitable.
