Case Study: Thomas Thomson (Blairgowie) Ltd boosts fruit picking efficiency with TSC Business Solutions and Psion Workabout Pro 3

TSC is pick of the crop for leading UK fruit farm

TSC Business Solutions worked with Thomas Thomson (Blairgowie) Ltd, a Scottish fruit farm supplying major UK supermarkets, to replace an aging fleet of Psion handheld devices. The farm needed a more reliable mobile system to manage seasonal workers, record piecework and hours, and improve productivity and traceability in a demanding, high-volume harvesting operation.

TSC Business Solutions implemented the Thomas Thomson Fruit Picking System using Psion Workabout Pro 3 rugged handheld computers and TSC software. The solution gave supervisors real-time access to field yield and staff performance data, streamlined barcode-based tray tracking for supermarket traceability requirements, and reduced the time spent downloading data at the end of the day. The modular devices also supported future wireless data transfer, helping Thomas Thomson improve efficiency across its harvest operations.
