Vehicle Tracking and Authentication:Vehicles are fitted with a GPS receiver and using their coordinates, the information is passed on through GPRS via cell towers to a central server that can then provide real-time location data to a terminal or a mobile phone. Back-end systems that do scheduling and routing get updated with this data.
In the absence of such a system that makes use of both mapping data and communications using satellites for accuracy and mobile technologies for cost-effective tracking, it becomes very difficult to know where the vehicles of a company are at any given moment.
The vehicle tracking solution can be a combination of both GPS and GPRS or may use just mobile technologies for tracking vehicles by using Cell-ID for triangulation and fixing the location of the tracked vehicles. Vehicle tracking results in greater utilization of vehicle assets, by enabling more efficient scheduling and routing.
Asset Tracking and Management:PistaSuite supports asset tracking, management and optimization for a wide variety of enterprise assets including people, vehicles, fixed assets, finished goods and documents. It uses an integrated approach combining wireless and auto-ID technologies like RFID, GPS, Mobile, Wi-Fi and Sensors to provide real-time location data on assets.
Typical applications would include inventory management, efficiently tracing and routing salespersons/service technicians on customer calls, tracking fixed as well as movable assets like plant and machinery, office equipment, laptops etc. and storage/retrieval of vital documents like trade secrets, formulae, agreements, classified data and IP.
Time and Attendance:T & A is a very common factor across organizations and existing methods of tracking time and attendance suffer from varying amounts of lost time and productivity. Ennovasys provides an RFID-based solution that automates this process, resulting in savings in time and money. Typical payback for implementing our solution is less than 12 months and it has the advantage of back-end ERP integration with payroll systems and employee data.
Item-level Tracking for Retail:The item-level tracking solution tracks individual items in a retail store and connects to the back-end systems to automate the supply chain processes involved in procurement, distribution, storage/display and point-of-sale.
Typical applications would be in pharmaceuticals in tracking high-value items and in consumer electronics.
Product Authentication and Counterfeit Checking:PistaSuite supports EPC-IS for product pedigree tracking and authentication, which will become a compliance issue in the pharmaceuticals business to thwart drug counterfeiting and is also broadly applicable across a swathe of industries where counterfeiting is rampant.
