- Tive in-transit visibility solutions help shipping and logistics professionals manage their shipments and eliminate preventable delays and damage.
- Tive's sensors provide the next level in visibility including:
- Real-Time Data. Tive has developed a proprietary sensor + software solution enabling supply chain managers to get real-time insight into the location and condition of their shipments.
- Complete Sensing Solution. A multi-sensor tracker sends location and condition data to the cloud, where it can be accessed from the Tive software platform in real time.
- Configurable Location Alerts. Managers can configure customizable alerts to trigger notifications based on geofences or other significant events.
- The Problem: When it comes to shipping critical materials or equipment, timing is everything. An early arrival may mean no one is available to receive the shipment, while a late arrival can result in field installation personnel billing for a wasted trip. Lack of coordination between the shipping and receiving teams leads to excessive cost, waste, and delay.
- The Solution: Tive helps ensure that equipment arrives before the installer with real-time asset location tracking. With precise insight into the location and expected arrival of critical goods, including notifications if the shipment is not proceeding according to schedule, managers can cut waste and improve efficiency along complex, interdependent supply chains.
