TOSCA
Introducing IoT to its clients has provided them with further time and cost savings as they gain the ability to track and manage the movement of their goods . Incorporating functions like GPS , bluetooth and cellular networks , clients are able to visualise the realtime location of each crate or pallet to assess any product delays .
The latest technologies used in this offering supersede foundational technologies , such as barcodes and RFID , that were previously used to check goods in and out of depots as points of reference on their journey to the customer . The IoT-driven system allows for more discreet information tracking as well as measurement of trailer temperature , humidity , and shock .
This system is particularly useful to track the location of pallets and crates , but also to track the temperature of fresh meat and poultry , frozen goods , and other products that require more tailored transit methods , such as refrigerated or freezer trailers .
Growth catalyses digital transformation at Tosca As a global company — headquartered in Atlanta , Georgia — Tosca has seen great adoption of its products and services across the states . It has also seen further interest from other countries in Europe , as well as Israel and others , thanks to some major acquisitions by the company .
To achieve its success , the company formed valuable partnerships with some critical organisations in technology , including Sycor for Microsoft Dynamics 365 support , SAP for implementing its HR systems , Data MTX for supporting most of its offshore labour requirements , and Sensolus for the presentation aspect of its global IoT solutions .
Another critical partner in Tosca ’ s success is Neway Technologies , which was the key
“ Once that crate is empty , the retailers just collapse those crates , and again , there ' s a reverse supply chain process ”
