The Origin of Logistics Tracing

The initial logistics tracking is mainly for the internal service of the enterprise. The optimization of enterprise internal resources and the need of production planning and dispatching planning require the tracking of goods and their loading tools. In production enterprises, tracking products can help us understand the completion of production plans and arrange all kinds of auxiliary ingredients and packaging materials in place in time; In the production department, the number of loading tools for transferring products in each process is limited, so empty tools must be returned to the previous process in time, and tracking the accurate position of these tools at each moment is a necessary condition for smooth production. In the transportation industry, the tracking of goods is beneficial to the arrangement of new manifests, in which the location of vehicles and containers is the information that the dispatching room should know clearly. For example, empty container tracking and dispatching in container transportation will save a considerable amount of money for transportation enterprises. Tracking the cargo loading situation can prevent the vehicle from being empty or half-loaded, reduce the transportation cost, further feed back to customers and reduce the rate, and make the enterprise more competitive.
