Surgere’s Innovative Services
Surgere offers a portfolio of innovatory solutions to transform the way companies plan and manage their assets as well as optimize their supply chain activities. Amongst its most prominent offerings is:
1. Returnable Container Management
Surgere also tracks reusable plastic and metal containers for durable products, leading to a reduction in single-use packaging, thus making it a sustainable device. The company's tracking solutions, which run on passive RFID and Bluetooth Low Energy technologies, keep track of the location and status of such assets in real-time. The system eliminates manual tracking errors while optimizing the usage of containers on a global scale for clients with reduced costs, improved predictability of inventory, and streamlined logistics. Besides cost protection, Surgere's systems ensure fast return of containers, shielding the business investments and preventing losses.
2. Localization Solutions
Locating indoor assets to tracking shipments outdoors, Surgere's localization technologies are crafted for accuracy. With tools like GPS, Ultra-Wideband (UWB), and WiFi, solutions provide end-to-end visibility over assets that are both in-house and on the go. An example would be asset equipment, which can be located to within inches, but it also tracks shipments in transit to avoid delays or misplacements. By combining multiple IoT technologies, Surgere ensures a robust and adaptable approach that meets diverse business needs.
3. Interius SaaS Platform
At the heart of Surgere's offerings is Interius, a robust software as a service that aggregates data from sensors, RFID tags, and GPS trackers into one view. With 99.9% accuracy in registering data, it enables organizations to monitor their assets closely. Interius does not just visualize supply chain performance but identifies inefficiencies, empowering businesses to make informed decisions. It is flexible, and with scalability, operations in a single location or global enterprises are well catered for.
4. Transportation and Distribution Visibility
Surgere’s Transportation and Distribution Visibility solution provides real-time tracking and insights to optimize supply chain operations. Using IoT technologies like GPS, RFID, BLE, and UWB, it monitors assets, vehicles, inventory, and environmental conditions, ensuring efficient management of shipments, trucks, and storage. The solution offers enhanced visibility into location, route planning, dock door usage, and inventory management, enabling better decision-making and operational efficiency. With 99.9% data accuracy, Interius software allows seamless automation of key tasks such as BOL creation, load planning, and cube optimization, ultimately improving productivity, transportation schedules, and customer satisfaction.
