Real-time locating system for monitoring critical chemicals can provide visibility for added security and safety in chemical facilities.
Real-time locating systems and solutions may be coupled with temperature and pulse sensors to help monitor the health of 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.
The AVANTE web-based with location based solution is ideal for construction and equipment companies and logistics firms in optimizing the value of their assets.
The unique AVANTE web based asset management solution and system uses “Motion Computing” tablets and its software solution for real-time location of asset and personnel that have been developed and honed over the last five years. The GPS-based technology coupled with cellular and satellite wide area networking and communication software has proven to help utility companies track assets such as corporate vehicles and personnel more effectively and efficiently. With a mobile phone and a GPS mapping application, an executive can pinpoint the location of equipment, asset or employees and set alerts via e-mail, SMS or phone for any exceptions. Executives or sales staff can also pull down the real-time location of the available assets.
Real-Time Locating System and Solution 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 systems and solution 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, are cost effective solutions.
