Line-side flow, optimised — from reactive to predictive.
A global automotive supplier faced bottlenecks from delayed line-side replenishment, AGV congestion and poor live visibility of pallets, carts and WIP inventory.
The challenge
What they were up against.
Replenishment delays
Line-side material arrived late, stalling production.
AGV congestion
Route conflicts slowed the robotic fleet and created collision zones.
No live WIP visibility
Pallets, carts and WIP were invisible in real time.
Our approach
Vendor-neutral, outcome-led.
Hybrid orchestration — UWB for high-accuracy AGV routing and collision zones, BLE on pallets, bins and material carts, AGV telemetry for route intelligence, and AI heatmaps for bottleneck and idle-time analysis.
How we solved it
What we delivered.
- UWB RTLS for high-accuracy AGV routing & collision zones
- BLE tags on pallets, bins and material carts
- AGV telemetry integration for route intelligence
- AI heatmaps — bottleneck & idle-time visibility
