De uitdaging

Handmatige cage-tellingen zijn traag, en inbound serials die nooit in de CMDB belanden leiden tot mislukte changes, spook-spares en auditrisico.

Onze aanpak

  • Passieve RFID voor dock-ontvangst, cage-inventaris en spare-pool-identiteit.
  • BLE / Wi-Fi RTLS for high-value asset and people visibility on the floor.
  • Change-window verification so the serial on the ticket matches the serial on the rail.
  • Continuous reconciliation of tagged kit against DCIM / CMDB.
  • Operational views for match rate, retrieval time and change success — in systems the team already uses.

Technologie & integratie

Stack deployed: Passive UHF (RAIN) RFID, BLE and Wi-Fi RTLS across the data hall and spare cages.

Integration: DCIM / CMDB, ITSM change tickets, and operations views.

Outcome: “Dock-to-rack identity cut ghost spares and made change windows boring — in a good way.”

How TRACIO worked the problem

Hall-identiteit en CMDB

Onafhankelijk advies means the radio is chosen last — after the job, the constraints and the system of record are clear.

Dock-to-rack and spare pools

Serial truth against DCIM/CMDB before another monitoring pane.

Metal-dense selection

On-metal RFID and portal design beat office-grade BLE fantasies.

Independence in the hall

No platform of our own; you buy hardware direct.

Meting

Baseline: CMDB-vs-cage steekproeven en change-tickets gesloten met “verkeerd serienummer / niet gevonden” over 4–6 weken. Pilot: één hall of spare cage met dock-RFID en CMDB-terugschrijving. Steady-state: serie–CMDB-matchrate, gemiddelde spare-ophaaltijd en seriemismatches in change windows. KPI-banden zijn typisch voor dit programmavorm.
