CONTINUM in the real life
CONTINUM is both versatile and specialised — built to deliver value across industries and proven to perform in the most demanding, complex use cases.
Supply chain
Supply chain operations demand precise logistics management to ensure that goods and commodities reach their final destinations accurately and timely, which is crucial for maintaining high levels of customer satisfaction. To achieve this, companies need seamless logistics processes with minimal disruptions and errors.
A practical approach to improving logistics involves deploying non-intrusive, low-barrier asset tracking solutions that are easy to implement. These solutions enable organisations to increase automation and intelligence in managing goods and assets, whether in transit, indoors, outdoors, or across the entire supply chain. By leveraging real-time tracking and smart management, businesses can enhance efficiency, reduce losses, and respond quickly to any issues that arise during the movement of goods. This technology supports end-to-end visibility and smarter decision-making throughout the supply chain.
Reusable assets
In manufacturing and wholesale industries, companies frequently utilise reusable assets to transport goods and commodities among suppliers, customers, and subcontractors. Yet, these assets — such as plastic boxes and crates, pallets, carts and cages and kegs are often lost on a daily basis, leading to inefficiencies and increased operational costs.
CONTINUM helps significantly reduce the loss of reusable assets in both open and closed loop supply chains by providing real-time tracking and management solutions. This enables companies to better monitor asset usage, location, and movement throughout the supply chain, improving asset utilisation, reducing shrinkage, and supporting sustainable and cost-efficient operations.
Equipment management
Businesses across industries such as construction, manufacturing, healthcare, and logistics rely on a wide range of equipment to carry out their daily operations efficiently. Proper management of this equipment is critical to maintaining productivity and controlling costs. Examples of commonly used equipment include compactors, generators, and tools in construction; forklifts, crates, and molds in manufacturing; and beds, wheelchairs, and respirators in healthcare settings.
Despite their importance, equipment management poses challenges like tracking usage, ensuring timely maintenance, and preventing loss or misuse. For instance, roadworks companies often face fines when road signs used on sites are not properly collected after work completion, highlighting the need for rigorous asset tracking.
Effective equipment management involves maintaining an up-to-date inventory, assigning responsibility for assets, implementing usage tracking, conducting regular inspections and maintenance. Leveraging technology such as asset tagging, automated check-in/check-out and centralised management systems can significantly improve accountability, reduce downtime, and prevent costly losses. This holistic approach ensures equipment is available, functional, and used efficiently across diverse operational environments.
Car park management
Managing large parking facilities presents significant challenges, which are directly influenced by the physical nature of their location. In above ground spaces, the vast distances between vehicles can hinder efficient communication, while in underground facilities, the depth and structural barriers create additional complications for reliable signal transmission. Ensuring secure and continuous data exchange throughout such environments is a major technical hurdle, one that only advanced "mesh" technology solutions are equipped to overcome. By establishing a decentralised network where each node relays information, mesh architectures guarantee resilient connectivity, even in the most demanding settings.
CONTINUM further enhances data protection by employing tri-band technology. This approach synergistically combines multiple frequencies and communication technologies, meaning that each data packet benefits from diverse transmission pathways. Such integration maximises data integrity and reliability, ensuring that sensitive information remains protected while service quality is consistently maintained at the highest standard.
Cold chain
Cold chain management is widely utilised in both the food and pharmaceutical industries. It encompasses a series of processes and specialised equipment designed to keep products within strict low-temperature ranges, starting from their initial harvest or manufacture through to final consumption. This system is crucial for maintaining, extending, and guaranteeing the shelf life of sensitive goods.
A highly economical and easy-to-use GPS temperature tracking tag provides continuous cold chain monitoring. With this solution, users can instantly check the condition of all assets, allowing for rapid response in the event of any temperature deviation.
Warehouse management
Warehouse management is a complex process that involves storing diverse goods and commodities in a facility before shipment or delivery. With many types of products and numerous employees interacting with them, it becomes challenging to accurately track what items are stored, where they are located, and how they move within the warehouse. Efficient warehouse management systems (WMS) help solve these complexities by providing real-time inventory visibility, optimising storage and retrieval processes, minimising errors, and improving overall operational efficiency. Integration with automation and enterprise systems further enhances control, reduces costs, and speeds up order fulfillment.
