dnata is using Descartes (DSG) CORE BLE™ real-time tracking solution to cargo handling at airports.
The newly digitized process provides greater asset visibility for more effective movement of air cargo.
Manager Operational Support Services at dnata, Kevin Walsh, said this about the Descartes system.
“The Descartes CORE BLE solution has given us location visibility in real-time, allowing us to better maximize asset utilization and minimize losing sight of them, which can be a challenge at the world’s largest airports.”
The Descartes CORE BLE™ requires tags to be applied to mobile assets and readers to capture the movement. Through solar power, the readers can be placed throughout the airport.
This tracking data helps ground handlers to better understand the location of cargo-handling assets, match capacity with asset inventory, and to reduce costs of replacing missing equipment.
In addition to location, temperature, movement, and humidity can also be monitored.
Vice President of Industry Strategy at Descartes, Glenn Palanacki, said,
“We are pleased to provide dnata with real-time asset visibility to help gain better control of those assets and serve its customers better.”
Descartes Systems provides software solutions for improving the productivity, performance, and security of logistics-intensive businesses.
