Sensefinity - Visibility for supply chains
Software is eating the world!
Marc Andreesseen, 2011
Software is everywhere in our daily lives: whenever we want to order food, buy a plane ticket, or manage projects or businesses. All modern processes have software behind the scenes.
However, what about logistics? Whenever we want to accommodate pallets in a warehouse, transport meat to a supermarket, or store medicines in a drug store, how can we know if these products are:
Stolen?
Lost?
Damaged?
The problem is that supply chain and logistics are primarily invisible!
Unlike frontend and backend processes that are fully digitalized, physical operations like transportation, storage, and handling of raw materials and products work in the shadow…
Logistic assets need to be visible, and software must also be required.
This is because we need special hardware to run the software. That hardware must be able to locate itself and gather environmental conditions around assets.
These special hardware are called… Sensors!
Sensors need to be small, have a long-life battery and be dust and waterproof.
So, it’s not software alone, it’s this combination of sensors + software that will turn logistics visible…
Sensors will eat the world!
Once assets are being monitored by sensors, operators can react to problems and fix issues. Managers can make better decisions with the IoT data gathered. Sensors will be everywhere!
Once sensors send information to our Analytics Platform, managers and operators can benefit from our reports: map location, HACCP reports, AI predictions:
Sensefinity has a platform with sensors/trackers, Web Analytics, blockchain, and AI that monitors all kinds of logistic operations:
track-n-trace maritime containers to identify containers that are not being used
locate tools and raw materials in a warehouse through an indoor location
alert for breaks in cold-chain for supermarkets' meat, fish, and dairy products
comply with the EU's new digital product passport initiative.
If you have a specific use case with assets you want to manage and monitor, maybe we can help. Let’s schedule a 1/2 online conversation. Share your problems and ideas.
