In a Strained Supply Chain, LANA Vision Optimizes Your Trailer & Cargo Management
The supply chain continues to be a problem as a product of the Coronavirus pandemic and heightened mandate protest, and things don’t look to be getting better any time soon. This is causing a lot of stress and headaches for manufacturers, shipping partners, retailers, and customers alike. Thankfully, we have advanced technology available to help ease these burdens for those in the transportation and logistics industry so we can regain an efficient and lucrative supply chain.
Showing Cracks
In the face of adversity, the strong and the weak are easily divided. Unfortunately, many companies are finding their operations to be weaker than they had thought. This level of disruption has never been seen before and many companies lack the tools and capabilities to overcome it. Getting ahead of a disruption is impossible to do without the right level of visibility into the supply networks. Therefore, they cannot predict nor meet demand from customers.
Trying to Get Ahead
Any operations manager will tell you that they are doing the best they can to stay ahead of demand and satisfy customers. Common tactics include ordering supplies earlier than usual, creating new backup plans to minimize adverse effects, and restructuring supply chains and inventory management to make more goods available to more people in less time. However, these tactics aren’t doing enough, quick enough to keep up with demand and backlog of trailers and other freight assets. Changes are needed to improve the way businesses serve their customers.
Using Trailer Tracking Technology to Save the Supply Chain
Adopting data-driven technology, such as GPS tracking for trailers, is the solution many companies are looking for to improve their operations. With a robust set of data, critical business decisions can be made quickly and more confidently. The ability to easily identify weak points in the supply chain allows users to address them before they become major problems. Businesses who take advantage of this data-driven technology will have more flexibility as demand and supply change. When managers have the right data and tools at their disposal, they can ensure goods are arriving in high-demand areas exactly when they’re needed. This will be especially helpful during seasons of peak demand, like the winter holidays.
How Advanced Trailer Tracking Improves Cargo & Trailer Management
Adopting any simple trailer tracking solution into your business is the best way to improve operations and overall asset management. However, why settle? Implementing a game-changing solution such as LANA Vision to your fleet of box/dry van trailers will supercharge your operations as you take control of your cargo and trailer fleet like never before.
LANA Vision comes packed with state-of-the-art technology that includes a door sensor, solar panel, and the LANA Vision Camera.
This team of sensors and cameras collects vital information for you to view via the intuitive LANA Asset platform. Easily see into your dry van, box trailer, or container, to quickly determine how much space is being utilized and if there’s room to carry another load on the same route, saving time and money.
The ability to receive immediate alerts on key events such as doors opening and closing can save your business a great amount of time, increasing your productivity beyond measure. With an event, the camera will take a photo of the inside of the trailer so you can ensure all your cargo is accounted for. This added visual component of trailer tracking also increases shipping efficiency by ensuring loads are packed correctly for optimal space usage.
