1. Efficient Logistics Routes: One of the primary problems that the system addresses is the need for efficient logistics route planning and monitoring. By equipping assets, vehicles, and goods with BLE tags, companies gain granular control and monitoring capabilities. This translates into optimized routes, reduced transit times, and ultimately, significant cost savings.

2. Cost-effective Synchronization: Supply chain departments often operate in silos, leading to inefficiencies and miscommunication. The system offers a cost-effective way to synchronize various supply chain departments by providing real-time asset location and status information. This fosters improved collaboration and coordination among teams, resulting in smoother operations and lower operational costs.

3. Goods and Condition Monitoring: Monitoring the condition of goods during transit is crucial to ensure their quality upon delivery. Companies can continuously track the condition of goods, such as temperature, humidity, and shocks. This proactive monitoring helps prevent damage, spoilage, or quality issues, enhancing customer satisfaction and reducing financial losses.

4. Vehicle Maintenance Optimization: Vehicle maintenance is a significant cost for logistics companies. The system assists in optimizing vehicle maintenance by providing real-time data on vehicle performance. This allows for predictive maintenance scheduling, reducing the likelihood of unexpected breakdowns and minimizing downtime.

5. Real-time Data Analytics: The system offers real-time data analytics through a cloud platform. This data-driven approach enables companies to make informed decisions, identify areas for improvement, and respond quickly to changing conditions in the supply chain.

6. Reduction of Fuel Emissions: Optimizing routes and vehicle maintenance contributes to a reduction in fuel emissions. This is not only environmentally responsible but also aligns with corporate sustainability goals and may lead to potential regulatory incentives.

7. Saved Funds for Operational Processes: The predictive maintenance capabilities of the system, coupled with efficient route planning and condition monitoring, lead to significant savings in operational processes. Companies can reduce unnecessary maintenance costs, prevent costly delays, and improve overall operational efficiency.
