How Thinxtra Solves Supply Chain Problems
Retrofitted IoT devices send small amounts of data to optimise logistics, monitor inventory and detect quality issues, loss or theft. In addition to financial benefits, IoT asset tracking solutions help to reduce asset loss and improve operational efficiency, quality and ultimately the customer experience.
Assets are monitored by attaching IoT devices that send information to data platforms
Locate, Track & Trace assets or vehicles and monitor their environment
Gain visibility and control to optimise your operations with IoT data insights
Increase customer satisfaction and supply chain partner collaboration
How IoT Asset Tracking Works
One size doesn’t fit all. Solutions for unique business needs.
An IoT solution to track and trace unpowered assets, such as containers or bins, consists of: battery-powered IoT devices attached to the asset; a data platform to realise the value of the asset data sent by the devices; and, most importantly, the right IoT network connectivity.
Asset tracking device
Connectivity to the IoT Network
Choosing the right IoT connectivity is crucial to ensure effective asset tracking. The right connectivity will depend on the application and the amount of data you need.
Data-visualisation platform
Data platforms translate information into insights that allow better decision making.
The platform should be able to collect data from public and private locations, and include data aggregation service and device management. Remote device configuration is also essential.
Enterprise Integration
A simple integration helps to manage operations, repairs and maintenance, and calculate your ROI.
The solution allows owners to integrate their Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) and an inventory management system.
