Tracking solutions for warehousing and logistics
Our tracking solutions help improve the visibility of items throughout the supply chain benefitting both the customer and supplier.
Benefits
Gain real-time visibility, accuracy and efficiency across your warehouse and supply chain
Modern warehousing and logistics operations demand accurate, real-time visibility of inventory, assets, vehicles and people. At RFiD Discovery, we design and deploy integrated identification and location tracking solutions using the most appropriate technologies - including RFID, BLE, UWB, LoRa and GPS - to help logistics and supply chain organisations operate more efficiently, safely and sustainably.
We take a technology-agnostic approach, selecting the right tools for each environment, use case and performance requirement.
Improving warehouse & logistics performance with smart tracking technologies
Traditional barcode systems require line-of-sight scanning and manual handling, which can lead to delays, errors and limited visibility. Smart tracking technologies such as RFID, BLE, UWB, LoRa and GPS enable the automatic, non-line-of-sight identification of goods, assets and transport items as they move through your facility or supply chain.
Key benefits of tracking technologies for warehousing and logistics include:
- Real-time inventory tracking and location accuracy
- Faster inbound, outbound and cross-docking processes
- Reduced stock discrepancies and shrinkage
- Improved order accuracy and fulfilment speed
- Automated tracking of returnable transport items (RTIs)
- Enhanced supply chain transparency and compliance

Frequently asked questions (FAQs)
What technologies can be used for warehouse tracking?
Warehouses commonly use RFID, BLE, UWB, LoRa and GPS. The best choice depends on accuracy requirements, environment, asset type and budget. No single technology fits every use case. RFiD Discovery works closely with customers to:
- Understand operational challenges
- Define accuracy, range and data requirements
- Select the most effective technology or hybrid solution
- Design, test and deploy scalable systems
Can tracking systems integrate with WMS or ERP platforms?
Yes. RFiD Discovery's software can be integrated with most Warehouse Management Systems (WMS), ERP platforms and business systems to provide real-time visibility and reporting across warehouse and logistics operations.
Are these tracking solutions suitable for both large and small logistics operations?
Yes. Solutions can be scaled and tailored for both small warehouses and large, multi-site logistics operations. The appropriate solution is decided based on the specific use case, operational complexity and growth requirements, rather than company size.
Can multiple tracking technologies be used in the same warehouse?
Yes. Many logistics operations use multiple technologies together. For example, RFID for inventory identification, UWB or BLE for real-time location tracking, and GPS for outdoor or in-transit visibility. Hybrid solutions provide end-to-end insight across the supply chain.
How quickly can a warehouse tracking solution be deployed?
Deployment timelines depend on the size and complexity of the operation.
