Any vehicle in your fleet can be connected to the Internet of Things. Apptricity’s I-Connect Controllers are edge devices with associated GPS antennas and RFID and/or Bluetooth antennas to provide real-time vehicle location services in addition to inventory scanning. Controllers connect to the internet with a cellular SIM chip, and associate antennas are situated throughout the vehicle to ensure full coverage for scans.

Tracking inventory in-transit represents a major blind spot that businesses constantly look to fix. Apptricity brings visibility to this area by equipping I-Controllers and antennas in a vehicle, ensuring that any tagged inventory will have their current location updated to match the location of the vehicle. This provides both drivers and back-office users with real-time information into the location of the vehicle and their on-board inventory.

Drivers gain immediate access to vehicle loadout information through Field Services Mobile. This tablet application shows the latest scan results collected by the I-Controller and informs drivers if the current scan shows missing assets or inventory that are required to be on their vehicle. Back-office users can also create, schedule, and dispatch work orders to drivers, who can then navigate to the work order location and complete any associated tasks.
