As our way of life has changed, cold chain management has become increasingly important in logistics and transportation. The cold chain is a distribution network in which temperature control is critical for shipments on roadways. Refrigerated production, storage, and distribution are all part of this temperature-controlled system. It is supported by infrastructure, equipment, and vehicles that can maintain constant temperature and conditions.
Why is temperature monitoring so important in cold chain business?
Depending on the type of products they manufacture, cold chain suppliers may be required to track specific types of information such as temperature or humidity. Temperature and other climatic factors, such as humidity level, can have an impact on the quality and circumstance of a specific roadway shipment type. GPS technology has been used in tracking, allowing critical data to be transmitted and received in real time. Suppliers and transporters can audit their supply chain processes by observing this data to identify incidents and activities that result in waste and inefficiency. This is where data acquisition comes in to help with cold chain management and surveillance.
Using the GPS Technology
Transport companies that rely on Gps system to track shipments on highways in real time. This enables them to keep clients updated on the status of there own consignments in transport. Temperature sensitive products, in the case of cargo containers, do not last forever. As a result, delays in delivery have an impact on the business, resulting in losses, and also in the case of such food and pharmaceutical products.
A dependable cold chain temperature monitoring system is essential for ensuring the safety and compliance required in cold chain assets involved in transport and storage. Cold chain monitoring telematics devices use GPS tracking technology and sensors to ensure that critical assets are always monitored and kept safe during transportation. Integration of devices with temperature, humidity, and moisture monitoring capabilities for both indoor and outdoor asset tracking, detailed fleet management, driver behavior monitoring, and theft and retrieval solutions is a boon for transportation and logistics companies.
Delivery towards the final mile
Many customers prefer to have their orders delivered to their door rather than going to a local station or store to pick up the products. Transporters are now responding to this demand by providing a last-mile delivery service that can be tracked using GPS technology. This is the last stage of the product’s journey from the distribution center shelf to the consumer’s door.
GPS supply chain management is a solution that is an effective supply chain tool for improving visibility, punctuality, and certainty of supply delivery. Human resources play an important role in cold chain supply management. To be successful, cold chain logistics must employ qualified personnel for storage, packaging, handling, condition monitoring, and transportation.
