Some of the projects that we are helping BlueStar partners with include:
- Wireless site surveys to ensure complete WiFi coverage in facilities like warehouses–both indoor and outdoor. The results of the survey include: access point part numbers, quantity, and locations, supporting infrastructure requirements such as security, switches, cabling, and antennas, and labor estimates for mounting and running wire to the equipment. Finally, the survey includes technical services to configure the equipment and perform the post implementation coverage tests.
- Cellular Failover appliances and connectivity for retailers so that they can continue to process credit card payments from customers in the event of a primary network connection failure.
- OS Migration consultation and recommendations for warehouse refresh/expansion projects, including upgrading handhelds mobile computers from Windows Mobile to next-generation Android.
The bottom line is that BlueStar can act as an extension of your networking sales and engineering team to help generate new business and close deals. We often visit partners throughout the US and Canada to perform training and relationship building.
