Data Capturing Systems Logistics and CEP (Courier/Express/Parcel) services encompass the physical movement of product from A to B. The material handling and transportation element of the logistics value chain has been continuously commoditized over the years. Consolidation in the transportation industry has driven down freight costs, while the management of the data associated with a particular shipment has become the critical success factor.
Athenox IT Solutions designs, builds, installs and supports mission critical data capturing solutions for companies in the transportation, logistics, postal and parcel industry. The automation needs of CEP and logistics organizations are continuously changing. The need to reduce cost and improve productivity drives IT investments, automation and process improvements. Leading companies in this industry have therefore continuously invested in automation and are reaping productivity benefits as a result. Whether the need is to improve existing automation and optimize processes in preexisting environments or a complete redesign or IT system replacement, at Athenox we know, how to collaborate with clients and partners to provide systems that improve efficiency, provide transparency, increase productivity and hence produce maximum ROIs.
Process automation throughout the delivery chain requires effective capturing of data from moving material. Tracking codes, text, numbers, weights and dimensions have to be captured and made available while the material in en route. Effective interplay between high quality, industrial camera and vision technology, intelligent image analysis, and effective dim and weight modules is critical in driving process automation, allowing the right data to be available at the right place, at the right point in time.
