Real-time Locating System (RTLS) for Efficient Yard Management
Searching for assets in expansive industrial sites can eat up hours every day. But why waste time searching when you can navigate? A multi-tech positioning system gives you complete yard visibility with the location of every vehicle, container, or stack of material. Reduce delays and speed up dispatch. It’s time to stop sending workers to wander the yard.
Yard Visibility Is Key to Increasing Throughput
Does this sound familiar?
- We rely on spreadsheets or walkie-talkies
- Our workers spend time searching for things
- We miss deadlines due to misplaced assets
- We need to improve worker safety
- We struggle with time-consuming audits
Keeping operations smooth in a large industrial yard is challenging. Locating technology will help you keep things moving, stay on schedule, and avoid chaos.
Real-Time Locating System Restores Control
A real-time locating system (RTLS) shows you exactly where vehicles, containers, or materials are—indoors and out—in real time. Instead of relying on manual checks or guesswork, you can navigate to them directly.
But knowing the location is only the start. RTLS also tracks how long assets stay in each zone and their movement history.
Plus, you can set alerts for key steps, like loading only after inspection. This helps you spot issues early, react fast, and keep operations running smoothly.
Track What Matters Most
RTLS is perfect for tracking high-value materials, vehicles, and time-sensitive operations. Especially, if your company is in automotive, steel, logistics, or you have a large-scale assembly plant. With our multi-technology Sense Asset+ tags, you’ll never lose sight of expensive assets, whether indoors or outdoors.
