John,

 

Thank you so much for your demonstration yesterday and your willingness to accommodate our needs. I am looping in Patrick and Kanchan, who would appreciate the offer you all have graciously made more than I would. We are certainly moving forward with the Loadman system. A PO has been issued to Randy and Dan on our team is working with him to schedule the installation and deployment. The Facilities staff would need about 6-8 weeks from when Randy can come down and train our drivers to be operational with the RFID tags on the containers. I am hoping that once we have a timeline set with Randy, I will have a clear timeline but I would say we don’t need a ready solution for at least the next 8 weeks.

Hi Shantanu,

 

When we did the last webinar, we discussed real-time export of data in the cloud to a locally hosted database. We also discussed the web API that could be used to fetch records and provided you with the API documentation.

 

I wanted to let you know we are planning to write a client application using the web API to fetch records from the cloud and store those records in a database. When it is complete, it will function much the same as the real-time export that we discussed but without the complexity of SQL Server queries over the Internet and the security concerns of having open SQL ports in the University firewall.

 

If you plan on moving forward with the Loadman system, could you let us know the timeframe of when you would be looking for the export capability? Also, let us know if you need any particular features. As a prospective “launch” customer for this application, you can make sure that your requirements are considered for being included in the product.

 

 

Thanks,

John Cramer
