• Temperature monitoring and recording

processes are frequently manual, error-

prone and time-consuming.

• Lack of automation means delays in

reaction times to remedy threats, plus

a lack of relevant analytics for informed

decision making.

• Inefficient routing, shipment delays,

fleet breakdowns all add to the overall

business costs.

Tracking and monitoring

processes are often manual

and inefficient
