Move
over global positioning system (GPS). Mobile Asset Tracking (MAT) is
the latest technology to hit the market. This technology can be used to
detect any tampering of a goods vehicle. With GPS one cannot track any
tampering that may have happened.
For example, if a truck carrying oil was stopped, the GPS system would only record stoppage time and hence you are not sure whether tampering took place. But with MAT sensors, any minute change is sent in real time to the server and hence tampering is accurately tracked.
Mumbai-based Intercode Solutions, which provides Automatic Identification & Data Capturing (AIDC) solutions, has recently launched this new MAT technology in India in collaboration with US-based solution partner RFTrax.
“This technology offers data on where the goods vehicle is, the status of the goods being carried and tampering, if any, in real time. The solution gives immediate alerts and information, so that the customer can take corrective action measures in the short term and streamline the process in long run,” Intercode Solutions chief technical manager Royston Rodrigues said.
MAT is commonly used around the world, especially at some of the largest ports like Singapore port, he added.
“The technology can help avert unexpected bottlenecks in the supply chain. For instance, if a railcar full of auto windshields suffers a violent shock in transit, you can take steps to prevent a production line shutdown, if a release is detected in a hazardous shipment, you can take immediate action to mitigate the risk, or, if someone has tampered with an oil or chemical tanker on the way to the factory or warehouse, the client whose goods are being transported would know of it instantly,” a company spokesperson said.
Intercode Solutions has supported clients like Pidilite Industries, Hindustan Lever, Castrol India, Hindustan Motors, Tata Steel, Essar, and Sterlite at almost all their plants in their various applications so as to automate their systems and speed up the work process.
