Case Study: Arizona Cardinals achieves 1,000 labor-hours saved and flawless production accuracy with Wasp Barcode Technologies

Arizona Cardinals Score Big with Wasp Barcode Technologies’ MobileAsset

The University of Phoenix Stadium, home of the NFL’s Arizona Cardinals and host to 10+ Cardinal games plus 100–200 other events annually, struggled with tracking costly production equipment—up to $100,000 in gear used on any given day—with no reliable inventory accountability, poor visibility into who had items, and difficulty forecasting equipment needs for multiple same-day events.

By deploying Wasp MobileAsset and portable barcode scanners, the scoreboard production team gained real-time visibility and centralized records for on- and offsite assets, deterring theft and enabling better planning. The system is user-friendly and portable, delivered near-perfect production accuracy, and cut manual tracking time—saving an estimated 5–20 labor hours per event (roughly 500–1,000 hours over two years) while speeding event setup and management.
