Use case
Inventory Management with RTLS Innovation
How to reduce order processing time, pick errors, and improve overall operational efficiency
Requirements
Automation of operational flows and advanced traceability to reduce errors and low-value activities
- Speed up production and logistic actions, relieving workers of those repetitive tasks with low cognitive value
- Increase automated digitalized operations to decrease human error (e.g., routing of goods in the production and logistic processes)
- Enable process transparency adding location information on top of identification of the goods carried out by barcode scans
RTLS Solution
Indirect location of loading units using UWB, BLE AOA or LIDAR technology
Indirect location is achieved by equipping personnel and/or handling vehicles with boxes, tags, and automatic load identification devices. The technologies being used are known for their high accuracy.
Benefits and results
Benefits of applying the RTLS solution to inventory management and automated identification
Increased automation and transparency reducing scanning steps and providing automatic identification and location of the goods
Improved quality and fewer product handling faults (e.g., loading and unloading errors, inventory errors)
