AUSTIN, Texas, May 23, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- TPSynergy, a
leader in cloud-based supply chain solutions, recently announced
the availability of smart tracking devices that provide global 360
degree shipment visibility.
"Where Is My Order?"
Shipment tracking is one of the most critical services in supply
chain management. Millions of dollars worth of goods are lost in
transit every year due to a lack of visibility during the shipment
process. Therefore, the ability to give an exact and immediate
answer to the question, "where is my order?" is critical to the
efficiency and robustness of any supply chain. TPSynergy's new IoT
tracking devices integrate seamlessly into its award-winning supply
chain platform, giving customers the ability to locate their
shipment any time of the day.
Internet Of Things (IOT) in Supply Chain
TPSynergy's new shipment tracking devices work anywhere in the
world, giving customers insight into their shipment's exact
location. These devices also provide additional critical data,
including atmospheric conditions such as storage temperature and
humidity. This can be critical for industries that have rigid
standards for transport, such as Pharmaceutical and Food Supply, as
it crucial to know the history of atmospheric conditions the
shipment has gone through before reaching a destination. Real time
visibility into this data can help timely preventive action to
avoid wastages.
How it Works
TPSynergy's IoT tracker is a compact device - measuring 3
inches by 3 inches, and weighing less than 12 ounces. This device
will be shipped in the same pallet or container along with the
material. While the shipment is traveling anywhere around the
globe, it constantly communicates to TPSynergy servers using
available cellular connections and GPS. In case a connection is not
available, data is stored internally and sent to the server once a
connection is reestablished.
TPSynergy's Supply Chain Control Tower analyzes this data stream
continuously and immediately notifies stakeholders whenever an
abnormal situation arises. The data is also easily accessible for
manual examination. Vital shipment information like temperature and
humidity is also stored using blockchain technology to add
authenticity and to improve ease of availability.

Blockchain Integration
Vital shipment information like temperature and humidity is also
stored using blockchain technology to add authenticity and to
improve ease of availability.
How it is Different?
"There are other GPS tracking devices in the market, but they
are all stand alone solutions. Users are required to link the order
details to devices manually to allow for meaningful tracking. But
since TPSynergy is a full service supply chain solution, it already
includes basic information like order and item details, making it
very easy to link and track the orders to the devices " - says
