SAN JOSE, Calif., April 9, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Rehrig Pacific Company, experts in reusable packaging that moves and merchandises customers' brands for food, beverage and CPG companies, today announces the selection of InSync's iApp Platform to implement all RFID- and GPS-enabled supply chain services for various verticals. Rehrig Pacific needed an application platform that delivers supply chain and tracking services to each of these industries without having to create the solution from scratch for each industry vertical. In addition, it wanted to leverage a solution that would work with any kind of automated identification technology including Passive RFID, NFC, WIFI and GPS.

"The iAppCloud(™) Platform allows us to use the same application template and tailor it to the specific needs of each industry vertical or the needs of a specific customer. iApp allowed Rehrig to consolidate several purpose built and custom applications into one platform allowing us to centrally manage, monitor and effect existing and new applications," said Rob Martin, Director of IT Operations for Rehrig Pacific Company.

"Using iApp's flexible and powerful reporting tool – iApp Vista(™), we were able to make changes to the dashboards, get feedback from the customer and refine the dashboards until they were just right. This ability allowed us to deliver specific services rapidly," said Kaley Parkinson, National Sales Director, Technology Services for Rehrig Pacific Company.

"Rehrig serves as a classic example of an enterprise Internet-of-Things application in action. By connecting its returnable transport packaging to RFID and GPS sensors and to the cloud with iApp, Rehrig is providing deep business insight into its customers supply chain operations, which was otherwise not possible. We are excited to partner with Rehrig as it continues to scale its enterprise IoT application services within Rehrig and across its customer base," said Ravi Panja, Co-founder and CEO of InSync Software.
