Visibility over InventoryChallenges:
Solution – Auto inventory
Benefits:
Updates & entries are manual, prone to errors and not frequent Tracking & tracing a product manually is time consuming Delayed & inefficient project operation Frequent out of stocks, need to maintain more stocks due to lack of visibility
RFID technology can be employed for automated inventory management at the contractor & Project sites
Equipment & Material Tagged with RFID , RFID readers with GPRS/WI-FI connectivity
The system is constantly updated with the whereabouts of the equipment & material at every node in the project supply chain
Electronic, real – time & accurate inventory data
The solution can be feature extended into a WMS, primarily having production threshold at manufacturer level & orders at contractor & project site level depending on present inventory
Material Tracking &Management
Bundle Tagging & RFID with GPS Installed on Crane
Transmission Project Inventory Tracking
Order / Delivery management
Challenges:
Solution – Supplier Collaboration:
Benefits:
No collaborative planning with the suppliers, Contractor & Project Manager No POD, authentication & confirmation of material reached at project site Delayed delivery of material to the project site. Frequent out of stock, Maintenance of extra inventory High shipment error rates, Project site & material delivered mismatch.
Web based solution that handles order management, processing of orders, delivery of product, shipping notices and invoices (NOVIPOD)
Collaboration pre-empts errors & facilitates effective transaction management between suppliers, Contractor & Project Manager along the supply chain.
Purchase orders can be extracted & processed through software such that the transactions are seamless & speedy
Decisions can be made proactively, to avoid supply chain issues around shipping, distribution & deliveries
Shipping notices & invoices can be handled systematically providing better visibility
Material delivery
Process
Project Operational Inefficiencies
Challenges:
Solution – RFID for Plant Synergy and Efficiency :
Benefits:
Disorganized movement of material & people into the project site No visibility of people / operations within the project Manual searching is labor intensive & security compromised. Delay in project process due to material & people not present at right time.
Completely automated system using RFID technology & system to track people in different area of site engaged in process & manage it efficiently.
Increased workflow speed & efficiency in operations Real – time in – site tracking Theft prevention & Perimeter security Locate people in case of need & control access to restricted areas Policy enforcement
Project Operational Inefficiencies
Locating & Remote Monitoring of Heavy Equipments
Challenges:
Solution – RFID for Plant Synergy and Efficiency :
Benefits:
Staff hours spent locating equipment & time spent maintaining equipment log books Unsafe equipment operation leading to more accidents & increased company liability Unnecessary maintenance based on arbitrary schedules & Idle assets not being used Bogus claims for overtime & Fuel theft
Completely automated system using RFID /GPS technology in combination with GSM/GPRS services for send & receiving heavy equipment performance details & whereabouts.
Report on start & stop times for accurate billing or bidding on new work. Stay on top of preventative maintenance with accurate usage details & automatic service alerts. Uncover fuel theft & Bogus overtime by monitoring usage compared to expected consumption. More successful bidding on new contracts with accurate costing Faster recovery of stolen assets
Locating & Remote Monitoring of Heavy Equipments
Remote Condition Monitoring for Water, Oil & Gas Project
