Enterprise mobility solution improves efficiency for oil field operations
SCHAUMBURG, Ill. and FORT WORTH, Tx. – The Motorola Solutions business of Motorola, Inc. (NYSE: MOT) and ExtenData, a leading provider of mobility applications, announced that Maalt Transport has selected their Proof of Delivery (PoD) solution to improve operations and increase productivity across its delivery fleet. With more than 30 years of combined experience in the transportation, oil field service and environmental service industry, Maalt Transport selected the reliable and rugged Motorola MC75A enterprise mobile computer to improve the receiving, unloading and storage of specialty sand products.
KEY FACTS
· Maalt Transport operates rail spur facilities in Texas and Oklahoma, and its15 rail cars are unloaded and processed every four hours. Fracturing sand is then delivered by bulk pneumatic transport trucks to remote drilling locations – requiring reliable connectivity to voice and data applications.
· The PoD solution consists of Motorola’s rugged MC75A enterprise mobile computers running ExtenData’s MobileConductor software to meet the demanding needs of Maalt Transport’s mobile workforce and provide future-proofing for potential advanced delivery operations.
· Maalt previously used a paper-based solution that did not provide the operational visibility and planning efficiencies needed to provide high levels of customer service. By deploying an easy-to-use, rugged PoD solution from Motorola and ExtenData, Maalt will improve real-time visibility across the organization – ultimately gaining a competitive advantage in the market.

“Downtime is simply not an option for our customers who run high-tempo operations 365 days a year.
