Global Restaurant Vendor The Bama Companies, Inc. Taps Aruba to Deliver New Employee Experiences and Accelerate Productivity
Summary
SANTA CLARA, Calif.--( BUSINESS WIRE )--Aruba, a Hewlett Packard Enterprise company (NYSE: HPE), today announced that The Bama Companies, Inc. (“Bama”), a leading producer of baked goods for the quick service restaurant and C-store industry in the U.S. and 20 countries around the globe, is using Aruba’s wireless, switching and security solutions to enable a mobile-first workplace that will enhance employees’ working experiences while improving operational productivity and overall efficiencies for the organization.Based in Tulsa, Oklahoma, Bama produces a wide variety of baked goods for global quick service restaurant chains and C-stores located across the United States.Bama’s previous wireless infrastructure didn’t provide sufficient coverage and lacked the reliability the company needed for both its back office and manufacturing plant connectivity, as well as allowing employees – each of whom carry two to three devices – to conduct their jobs effectively.With the Aruba solutions, Bama enabled pervasive coverage across its U.S. offices and manufacturing plants – including its previously excluded freezers – allowing employees to use a variety of mobile devices, and connecting the 150 Motorola Symbol (now Zebra Technologies) handheld and fork lift-mounted scanners the company uses for inventory management.The company delivers IT solutions that empower organizations to serve the latest generation of mobile-savvy users who rely on cloud-based business apps for every aspect of their work and personal lives.
