7 Before Re-Implementation
"View" > "Header & Footer" > "Slides" > "Date & Time FIXED" > (replace what's there) Before Re-Implementation QAD 2013SE (Planned Upgrade to EE) Single On Premise LINUX Server in Elkhart, IN Two Entities with several Sites Elkhart, IN Kunshan, China Elkhart legacy Data Collection use limited to a few transactions Intermec RF Terminals Zebra Label Printers Kunshan legacy Data Collection not in use Intermec RF Terminals (US units) Zebra Label Printers FOOTER: "View" > "Header & Footer" > "Slides" > (replace what's there)

8 Replacement Decision Considerations
"View" > "Header & Footer" > "Slides" > "Date & Time FIXED" > (replace what's there) Replacement Decision Considerations Support for QAD EE Direct integration with QAD Progress programs & db Functionality configuration flexibility Extensive collection of available transactions Ability to easily implement new transactions Robust bar code label printing (no additional SW) Chinese language support Implementation knowledge and experience FOOTER: "View" > "Header & Footer" > "Slides" > (replace what's there)

9 Future Data Collection Requirements
"View" > "Header & Footer" > "Slides" > "Date & Time FIXED" > (replace what's there) Future Data Collection Requirements Enterprise-wide, single-source solution Out of the box QAD compatibility Ability to operate with existing infrastructure Simple, intuitive interface – minimal retraining Protect existing RF terminals and printers Minimal internal and external resources required Available functionality for receiving, warehouse inventory management, issuing components, production reporting, labor, shipping, label printing, multiple sites, and multiple entities.

10 Selection of Eagle RF Express™ for QAD Enterprise Applications
"View" > "Header & Footer" > "Slides" > "Date & Time FIXED" > (replace what's there) Selection of Eagle RF Express™ for QAD Enterprise Applications Product Demo: Real-time, demo proved the product’s ability to meet Shield’s existing and anticipated needs QAD compatibility: No need to create and support APIs or terminal-based solution. No QAD code changes. Minimal hardware requirements: Terminal Emulation only. All Eagle code resides on existing QAD server. Real Time: No CIM loads. No batch updates. Tight Integration with QAD: Eagle was ready to go with wide array of standard QAD-compatible transactions Expandability: Ability to support existing transactions and available standard transactions for new functions we want to add. This allows us to be internally creative and supported with enhanced functionality from Eagle RF transactions. FOOTER: "View" > "Header & Footer" > "Slides" > (replace what's there)

Data Collection Goals Use Eagle RF Express for QAD Enterprise Applications across the entire spectrum of material management – from inbound supplier material to the finished goods out to the customer. Continue to move Shield forward by improving inventory accuracy, manufacturing visibility and customer service. Continually adjust our implementation to build upon previous success, improving operations with each newly implemented data collection transaction and enabled feature. Implement a functionality rich and highly flexible solution. FOOTER: "View" > "Header & Footer" > "Slides" > (replace what's there)
