Key Benefits

Real-Time Shipment Visibility

System Loco provided uninterrupted monitoring of shipment locations and environmental conditions using a combination of positioning technologies. This end-to-end visibility across supply chain nodes gave the company confidence and control over high-value goods in transit.

Customized Alerts and Route Deviation Monitoring

By implementing dynamic journey rules, the company created bespoke alerts for route deviations, excessive dwell times, and environmental anomalies. These event-based notifications allowed teams to take action the moment risks appeared—mitigating incidents before they escalated.

Seamless Communication and Crisis Management

System Loco’s workflow engine streamlined communications with drivers, dispatchers, and even law enforcement. In the event of an alert, pre-built escalation paths were triggered automatically—reducing response times and minimizing the impact of disruptions.

AI-Enhanced Threat Detection

With access to historical and real-time data across routes and conditions, System Loco enabled ongoing refinement of security protocols. Their AI-powered platform helped the client anticipate threats, refine monitoring thresholds, and adapt to evolving risks in high-value logistics.

Introduction

Challenge

North American provider of high-value goods monitoring solutions for electronics manufacturers needed to deliver unparalleled security for their clients’ in-transit assets. Their goal was to detect and respond to threats before they occurred—ensuring integrity, reliability, and peace of mind.

Challenge

The provider had outgrown manual incident tracking systems and was struggling to meet the real-time needs of clients managing millions of dollars’ worth of equipment in motion. They needed a platform that could not only track shipments but also automatically respond to changing conditions, alert relevant parties, and verify compliance with security protocols. Delayed interventions, limited visibility, and siloed systems created exposure to theft, loss, and liability.

The Solution

System Loco was selected for its holistic IoT platform. The deployment included BLE sensors, GPS-enabled devices, a custom software dashboard, and pre-configured journey rules. These technologies were embedded across trailers, containers, and pallets to track conditions like location, temperature, shock, and unauthorized access. Alerts were generated in real time for deviations and exceptions—each tied to pre-configured response workflows.

Results & Impact

The rollout yielded rapid ROI. Shipment interruptions were reduced by 30%, and alerts empowered stakeholders to take action within minutes—not hours. System-wide accountability increased, and customer confidence soared. Moreover, automated compliance reporting lightened operational burdens and created a digital paper trail for audits.

These improvements positioned the company as a trusted leader in shipment integrity monitoring, expanding their base of Fortune 100 clients. Customers reported reduced cargo loss and praised the transparency and responsiveness made possible by System Loco’s technology.
