Savi announced the launch of Savi Now, a mobile app that takes advantage of the advanced sensor-based features of iOS and Android smartphones to deepen visibility into the location, status and risk profile of high-consequence goods. Savi Now allows global commercial and government organizations to tap into the full set of features available on smartphones to better track and manage assets through the supply chain, mitigate risk and optimize performance.
With Savi Now, users can track the precise, real-time location of assets anywhere in the world, and receive exception-based notifications and alerts, including arrival, departure, dwell-time and speeding events. The app uses the smartphone’s embedded hardware to scan barcodes and store photos of the assets and track assets via the smartphone’s internal GPS. This new approach to tracking enhances security, accountability and predictability in the supply chain, by leveraging a device that many already carry in their pocket.
“The proliferation of mobile technology, the rise of the Internet of Things and enhanced data analytic techniques have transformed the way commercial and government organizations think about the global supply chain,” said Bill Clark, president and CEO of Savi. “These organizations demand real-time visibility of high-value assets anytime and anywhere. Savi Now builds on our 25-year legacy in sensor technology and gives users the ability to turn their smartphones into readers, expand data capture and increase visibility across the supply chain for more intelligent decision making, reduced risk and optimized operations.”
