Ordering the PicoCooler Device

For this process, the distributor is to work with International Team to order new stock. For RBC, this would be done via intersite transfer. Once the operator submits their order, it is pushed to the distributor. The distributor will then need to provide serial number(s) of the PicoCooler device(s) and, if applicable, the SIM card. The distributor will then push it to 365 to process.

 

Ordering the MinusForty (M40) Cooler

RBC has established a direct relationship with MinusForty to sell coolers to customers. The point of contact for MinusForty is Steve Honsinger - International Sales Account Manager  (Steveh@minusforty.com).

 

SIM Setup and Billing Process

  • RBC must inform purchasing () when they are down to 5 SIM cards.
  • Purchasing will generate and submit the PO to Mikrolab.
  • Mikrolab will ship to RBC
  • Operators will receive a recurring fee from 365

 

SIM Cancellation

  • If an Operator decides to cancel connectivity via SIM card prior to twelve months, they will still need to pay for twelve months since it is a binding contract.
    • There is no penalty for early termination but will still have to pay for twelve months. After twelve months, one can cancel the contract every month.
    • Termination MUST be sent on or before the 20th of the month. To cancel, an email with the SIM card number must be sent to Peter Muhlmann (muehlmann@mikrolab.com) and copy Christian Kägeler ().

 

Installation and Self-Provisioning of PicoCooler

Distributors do not mount or install the device on the cooler, they simply hold stock, note the serial numbers, and ship the PicoCooler device off. Picos are self-provisioned so Distributors will ship the devices(s) to the operator as inventory units and the operator will be in charge of staging.
