Tive, a global leader in supply chain logistics technology, continues the evolution of cold chain visibility with Tive Tag—a long-life, reusable cloud-enabled temperature logger that’s as easy to use as sticking a label on any cold shipment. Whether going across town, coast to coast, or worldwide, Tive Tag tracks temperature-sensitive shipments end-to-end—regardless of mode and at half the cost of a traditional data logger.
5 Use Cases: Creating Data Trails of Cold, Hard Facts
Temperature loggers are vital for shippers of perishable products (produce, meats, dairy, food and beverages, and organic products including flowers and plants) to keep cold chain custody. Additionally, for those logistics partners who handle those shipments along the way. Therefore, for everyone in this ecosystem, Tive Tag is an ideal solution for the following use cases.
- Use Case 1: Determining when and where damage/spoilage occurred. Logistics professionals must be able to audit the cold chain to determine where a temperature excursion occurred. Audits are essential for claims proceedings, and can also improve the ability to prevent similar occurrences in the future.
- Use Case 2: Verify cold chain integrity. Reports generated from the data stored in the Tive Tag portal provide a detailed temperature log — from point of origin to point of destination—which 3PL companies can use to protect themselves against insurance claims of damaged goods resulting from temperature excursions.
- Use Case 3: Ultimate tracking, inside and out. Stick a Tive Tag outside the package to track the ambient temperature from origin to destination.
- Use Case 4: Greater cost control. Switching from expensive manual loggers saved $2 per tracker (saving $6,000 annually) for one Tive customer; another replaced 5,000 trackers at $12 per shipment (a $60,000 annual savings).
- Use Case 5: Reduce labor and time costs. Using Tive Tag to replace manual processes for capturing temperatures saved time and allowed warehouse managers to reallocate staffing resources to more critical tasks.
