Our Approach

Product League carried out extensive UX research among employees in the distribution centres, and developed a mobile app for the Zebra TC57 based on it, specifically tailored to the dispatch control work process.

The Solution & Impact

The new mobile solution has been rolled out in 2 of COOP's distribution centres and makes the dispatch control work process significantly more efficient. Because the app was built on extensive UX research, it matches employees' daily practice seamlessly.
