EVERETT, Wash., Oct. 28 (UPI) -- The U.S. Army has contracted Intermec Inc. for the company's rugged mobile computer technologies for combat theater inventory accountability and tracking.
Washington state-based Intermec was contracted to support the Army's Property Book Unit Supply Enhanced system with its CK61G rugged mobile computers and PM4i barcode printers.
