RFgen Software, a division of DataMAX Software
Group, specializes in using mobile data collection
and barcoding technologies to automate as many
manual supply chain processes as possible, enhancing
efficiency, accuracy and productivity for midsize to
enterprise-level SAP users. RFgen accomplishes this by
extending mobile data collection capabilities to point-
of-work using a combination of specialized software and
enterprise mobile devices with barcode scanning. The
company’s specialization in mobile data collection is
combined with additional specialization in supply chain
consultancy.
RFgen was founded as an asset tracking software
tool for mining companies. Since then, and in the
last 10 years, in particular, heavy investment in R&D
and innovation has enabled the company to provide
full mobile data collection solutions with certified
integration to SAP and many other major ERP systems
for any type of business operating in the supply chain.
RFgen Software’s mission is to provide reliable and
highly flexible mobile data collection solutions that
speed workflows, increase accuracy, improve efficiency
and reduce cost, thus enabling its customers to
successfully compete in today's global economy.
Robert Brice is co-founder, President and Chief
Technology Officer of RFgen Software. He has more
than 40 years of software programming experience with
specialization in mobile technologies and enterprise
resource planning (ERP) systems like SAP, Oracle, JD
Edwards and more. He leads the RFgen team in their
efforts to anticipate and react to major technology
changes, to ensure adherence to company technical
standards, and to ensure the maintenance of company
leadership in the competitive landscape through
strategic R&D planning.
Robert is responsible for the design, development
and go-to-market strategies for the RFgen technology.
During his career, he has acted as the channel manager
for both domestic and international partner recruitment
efforts; playing a key role in establishing the RFgen
partner network in over 35 countries around the world.
Robert has acted as a sales coach for internal sales
teams as well as for the company's partners. He has
been a featured speaker at International AIDC industry
conferences in the U.S., China, Singapore, Indonesia,
Australia, Belgium, Netherlands, and Italy. Prior to his
work with RFgen, Robert occupied several roles within
direct sales, technical sales, technical development,
sales and technical training, and software consulting
services for multiple industries.
RFgen offers mobile data collection software
through both out-of-the-box and custom-developed
apps for the supply chain, based on the customer’s
internal processes and SAP workflows. Using mobile
data collection and barcoding, the company can provide
real-time mobile inventory control for warehousing,
manufacturing, MRO and plant maintenance processes,
and more. As part of RFgen’s out-of-the-box offering, the
company offers a low-code mobile app development
environment specialized supply chain processes to
enhance SAP user self-sufficiency. The company also
provides consultancy for SAP mobile data collection
best practices and software.
RFgen is a paragon of flexibility. As a mobility
solution, the company does not install or run on
your SAP server, it automates any number of manual
entry fields, is device agnostic and entirely version-
independent from your ERP. RFgen easily integrates
with on-premise, cloud, hybrid deployments, as well
as multiple business systems and multi-tier ERPs. Even
as products change and evolve, users experience a
hassle-free process when it comes time to upgrade
SAP or migrate to the Cloud. The company's flexible
architecture makes it the most versatile and scalable
solution for growing enterprises pursuing digital
transformation and growth initiatives.
The global economy has changed business
dramatically in recent years. From the Amazon-effect to
high-end AI technology for business, companies that are
still utilizing old, paper-based processes are in jeopardy
of losing significant market share due to inefficiencies
and opaqueness in those processes. RFgen’s end-to-
end guided process creates faster workflows through
automation with real-time inventory tracking, shipping
and last-mile delivery using easy-to-use barcoding
scanning.
With key innovation and growth initiatives set in
place by Robert, RFgen will continue to flourish with
rapid year-over-year growth. Investments in additional
resources throughout 2019 will be leveraged to increase
the company’s bandwidth in 2020 while continuing to
expand its technology offering. RFgen is a tech company
that puts people first. It believes in hiring exceptional
people to deliver exceptional guided experiences to its
customers to create exceptional outcomes.
To a company growth, executives should have
a realistic outlook on the adaptability of company
processes and staffing to handle change can be a
significant disruption to operations. CEOs who are
personally invested in relationship-building with their
employees and department heads are well-positioned
to hear one-on-one feedback on potential speed bumps
on the road to growth. Also, executives shouldn’t lose
sight of the human factor when adopting technology
to facilitate growth. Technology solutions are not
replacements for human power, but rather, force
multipliers that augment existing labor to improve the
lives of employees while also helping the company grow.
As SAP and other large ERPs move to their new cloud
infrastructures, mobile data collection must follow suit
by offering scalable architectures, robust workflow
processes and seamless transitions from an on-premise
to cloud integration. The RFgen teams have been
working diligently on the next major release, version 5.2,
which will be the most Cloud-adaptable yet. Offering
low latency times, off-network and on-network flexibility
through its easy-to-use mobile application development
platform (MADP), RFgen is strategically positioned for
market share gain in the coming years.
