Containers

Reverse Logistics Tracking

Overview

Managing Returnable Transport Items (RTIs), such as containers, pallets, and kegs, is essential in logistics and supply chain operations. These items often suffer from visibility issues, leading to inefficiencies, with up to 15% of RTIs lost annually. Traditional tracking methods are manual, prone to errors, and fail to provide real-time visibility, impacting overall operational effectiveness.

Solution

Azitek offers an asset tracking solution tailored for efficient management of Returnable Transport Items.

How It Works

1
Tags
Each asset is equipped with an active tag designed specifically for tracking these items.
These tags are optimized for long-range communication, ensuring effective tracking across large areas and even in challenging environments with metal or liquid interference.
2
Gateways
Gateways are strategically installed throughout the facility or on transport vehicles.
They capture data from the tags, offering extended coverage of up to 200 meters.
The gateways ensure continuous visibility and accurate tracking of RTIs as they move through different stages of the supply chain.
3
Data and Dashboard
The data collected by the gateways is transmitted to a centralized cloud-based dashboard.
This dashboard provides a user-friendly interface for monitoring RTI locations, managing inventory, and accessing real-time analytics.
The system also supports API integration, allowing an incorporation into existing logistics management systems.

Benefits

Implementing Azitek's RTI tracking solution provides significant benefits, improving the efficiency and effectiveness of logistics and supply chain operations.

Complete Visibility and Data Analysis

Real-time tracking ensures that the location and status of every RTI are always known, helping in quick decision-making and efficient resource allocation, with access to data and analysis.

Prevention of Losses

Continuous monitoring of RTIs reduces the risk of loss, controls valuable assets, and minimizes operational disruptions.

Operational Efficiency

Automating the tracking and management of RTIs reduces the need for manual recording, saving resources and reducing errors.

Environmental Impact

Businesses can avoid overbuying these assets, which directly contributes to a reduction in resource consumption and waste. This leads to lower CO2 emissions associated with the production and transport of excess assets, promoting a more sustainable supply chain.
