Tive – Re-imagining supply chain visibility with sensor-driven awareness and analysis tools

The Silicon Review

The pandemic has shown that logistical hurdles can arise quickly and unpredictably, causing major backlogs if not adequately prepared for and managed. Digitizing the supply chain with an emphasis on collecting and utilizing real-time data is the best way to mitigate the risks associated with supply chain congestion. When bottlenecks emerge, real-time visibility helps shippers immediately answer customer and stakeholder inquiries, rapidly locate a delayed product and easily manage transactions. Real-time visibility involves the use of technology to log detailed information as raw materials and finished goods move through all stages of the supply chain, from sourcing and manufacturing to final delivery. Digitizing the supply chain lends shippers and carriers the necessary visibility and dynamism that allows for seamless adaptation to fluid market changes.

Tive is a leading provider of real-time supply chain visibility insights that help logistics professionals actively manage their in-transit shipments’ location and condition. With Tive, shippers and logistics service providers (LSP) eliminate preventable delays, damage, and shipment failures. Tive‘s solution provides data generated by its industry-leading trackers allowing clients to actively optimize their shipments, improve their customers’ experience, and unlock supply chain insights in an actionable real-time manner.

Leveraging advanced tracking portfolio for visibility of shipment location, integrity, and climate

It manages the shipments and sends notifications when issues are detected. Customers can view location and condition data of your shipments in real time to ensure on time and in full delivery and specify the constraints relevant to shipments and receive notifications when issues arise. Companies can create detailed reports to share with customers and analyze their data to identify improvement opportunities. The hyper-accurate Tive trackers and cloud-based platform can be applied to each shipment at the processing facility to track for real-time location, temperature, and humidity monitoring throughout a shipment’s journey by air or sea. Plus, the Tive tracker provides global coverage and can be programmed from anywhere in the world to provide real-time data that provides proof of conditions inside and outside of the crate that can be shared with customers instantly. Tive offers a comprehensive supply chain visibility solution with real-time tracking, long battery life, and no expensive infrastructure needs.

Solo 5G Tracker: It is the world's first single-use multi-sensor tracker provides real-time visibility into the location, temperature, humidity, shock, and light of your goods in-transit, at the item-level, from end to end. A combination of innovative hardware design, cutting edge firmware, and integration of cloud computing delivers the world’s longest lasting 5G tracker. Say goodbye to complicated return logistics operations. The Tive Solo 5G can be used as a single-use tracker, so it’s perfect for last-mile deliveries where collecting and returning trackers poses a challenge. In cases where tracker return is possible, Tive offers a rebate program that encourages and rewards the return of single-use trackers to Tive for recycling. Get real-time visibility into every package in your consignment, at a fraction of the cost. Beacons report temperature and proximity to a parent tracker, which then transmits that data for the whole shipment.

Tive Flagship Tracker (TT-4000): Tive Flagship Tracker (TT-4000) is a re-usable tracking device with industry leading battery life (15 months on a single charge). The flagship tracker accurately reports on location using a combination of cellular tower triangulation, GPS and Wi-Fi positioning. It provides rich sensor data for a complete view into the condition of shipments, including location, temperature, humidity, light, shock, orientation and tilt.

Tive Tag

It is the thinnest, easiest to use label for end-to-end cold chain monitoring of temperature-sensitive products. It is the most-cost effective solution for first and last mile cold chain visibility. Using your iPhone or Android, tap the Tag to start. When a shipment arrives, tap the Tag again to collect the temperature data from its origin to its destination. It is the most cost-effective, easiest-to-use temperature logger available for end-to-end cold chain monitoring of temperature-sensitive shipments. Store and view temperature data across modes (road, air, ocean, and rail) to verify cold chain integrity, ensuring the safety and quality of your products.
