Every trailer. Every dock. Every pallet. Reconciled in real time.
TRACIO delivers RTLS and RAIN RFID programmes for 3PL and DC operators: dock-door reconciliation, yard truck location, forklift safety and utilisation, returnable container tracking. Integrated with Manhattan, Blue Yonder, SAP EWM, Körber.
What we keep seeing in Logistics programmes.
Manual dock reconciliation
Goods-receipt audits done by humans miss or over-state inbound. Inventory accuracy slowly bleeds away.
Yard 'where is it?'
Trailers parked. Yard truck assignments verbal. Dispatch makes the wrong move because no one has the live picture.
Forklift safety & misuse
Forklift incidents have a human and an insurance cost. Utilisation is misread because there's no operational signal.
The use cases that consistently pay back.
Dock-door RFID
RAIN RFID portal at every dock door. Auto-reconcile inbound and outbound against ASN. Exception-based investigation instead of full-pallet audit.
Yard truck & trailer
BLE / GPS-hybrid on trailers, GPS-RTK on yard trucks. Dispatch sees the yard live, picks routes optimally.
Forklift safety & utilisation
UWB on forklifts with pedestrian-tag proximity alerts. Speed, dwell, and idle dashboards for fleet optimisation.
Returnable transit items
BLE on RTIs (totes, dollies, cages). End the 30% shrinkage many 3PLs accept as 'normal'.
Cold-storage compliance
Temperature + location + dwell logging for cold-chain operators. GDP-aligned reporting.
AGV / AMR fleet
Multi-vendor robot orchestration (VDA 5050) for goods-to-person and transport workflows.

We run thin margins, so the business case had to be real. RAIN RFID at every dock door plus BLE on trailers saved €2.1m a year with a seven-month payback across twelve DCs. It succeeded because TRACIO benchmarked vendors against our actual dock environment and phased the rollout site by site.Head of Network Operations · European 3PL · EMEAAnonymised at the client’s request.

Logistics & 3PL — where the payback shows up.
Dock-door & inbound reconciliation
RAIN RFID at every dock door auto-reconciles the ASN against what was physically received; claims, shrink and manual scanning fall.
Yard & trailer management
Trailer location and dwell turn detention into a measured, billable metric — over 2 million euros a year saved in comparable rollouts.
Returnable transit item tracking
Pallets, totes and roll-cages tracked and recovered, cutting asset loss and replacement spend across the network.
