Transportation and Logistics
As manufacturing moves operations to strategic delivery locations, transportation and logistics take on increasingly critical roles. Transportation and logistics companies are experiencing intense pressures from their customers to provide time-definite delivery at lower costs. With increased regulations and shrinking margins, these organizations are looking to use technology to increase efficiency through increased visibility. RFID enabled applications can help carriers and their customers manage all aspects of freight processing – from scheduling, delivery status and final delivery information. RFID can:
- Optimize DC operations by automating checkpoints at distribution centers and warehouses to eliminate errors.
- Increase the velocity of shipping and loading processes by optimizing shipment handling.
- Enable detailed container tracking.
- Track-and-trace shipments to verify that the right load in the right truck is going to the right destination.
- Improve both the efficiency and security of shipment handling processes.
- Monitor the specific locations of vehicles on huge lots, thereby streamlining check-in procedures and minimizing unnecessary upgrades.
