Real-time locating system for monitoring critical chemicals can provide the visibility for the added security and safety in chemical facilities.
Real-time locating system may be coupled with temperature and pulse sensors to help monitor the health of the animals over a wide pasture environment. The ZONER tags with sensors may be reused over a 5-10 year period for valuable assets.
Some or all of the above applications are covered by one or more of the following US patents: 7,513,425; 7,508,308; 7,501,954; 7,423,535; 7,382,255; 7,342,497; 7,319,397; 7,158,030; 7,098,793; 7,036,729; 6,961,000; 6,943,688; 6,883,710; 6,703,935; 6,696,954; 6,657,543; and other pending patents.
Real-Time Locating System is the foundation for Real-Time Asset Visibility and a Necessity for Better Asset Utilization or “On-Demand” Real-Time Personnel Visibility for Personnel Safety

The key to effective asset tracking and supply chain management is having real-time visibility. Some real time locating asset management system implementations have yielded return of investment (ROI) in less than a year.
| REAL-TIME LOCATING PROVIDES ASSETS VISIBILITY | |
| Problem Addressed | Benefits |
| What are the assets within the monitoring area? (“Who-What”) |
|
| Where are the assets? (“Where”) |
|
| What are the conditions or events that happened to each asset? (“What-When”) |
|
In the case of supply chain management, real time visibility can dramatically enhance supply chain security and may help to save most of the current 6-10% loss encountered by the industry. For most supply chain management applications, real-time visibility to the last control access point or choke point may be adequate. Passive barcode or passive RFID tags, at lower price per tag or label, is cost effective.
