Philadelphia-Based ARC Device Management Kiosk Wins Prestigious A'Design Award



PHILADELPHIA - July 14, 2022 - (Newswire.com)

ChargeItSpotARC, in collaboration with Design 1st,  has been awarded the 2022 Bronze A' Design Award in the Office and Business Appliance Design Category. This prestigious award highlights designers, innovators and companies from across the globe that achieve an exemplary level of excellence in design.  

ARC™, a centralized device management kiosk and software platform, helps companies maximize handheld mobile device availability and reliability while minimizing issues like shrink and downtime. ARC was officially unveiled at the MODEX Supply Chain and Automation Show in Atlanta, Georgia, in March of 2022.  

The ARC platform was conceptualized by ChargeItSpot, leveraging their expertise in mobile device management to combat the need for systems that charge and manage employee devices. While ChargeItSpot developed the software and cloud-based platform in-house, they brought on Ottawa-based product design company Design 1st to design the physical kiosk and aesthetics that earned the award.

"The talented Design 1st team of industrial designers and electrical and mechanical engineers was instrumental in translating our vision into a reality," said Sheri Tate, SVP of Product Strategy at ChargeItSpot. Both companies iterated on design concepts—including the shape of the housing, locker doors, indicator lighting and use of color— to achieve the desired branded look and feel. The final product design has been met with great enthusiasm from clients in retail, warehousing and hospital sectors.  

"We are thrilled to receive this honor from the A' Design Award Judging panel in partnership with our client ARC," says Kevin Bailey, CEO of Design 1st. "This prestigious and influential design accolade is a result of two teams delivering on an ambitious nine-month accelerated timeline. Human-centered design and solid engineering principles, including rigorous testing, are at the core of the work that we do, and we look forward to further collaboration with ChargeItSpot as they expand their presence into the enterprise device management market."
