Physical World → Connected Data → Business Intelligence

Connecting the Physical and Digital World

RFID and IoT technology connect physical assets, inventory and equipment with the digital business platform, so operational activity becomes information that can be viewed, automated and analyzed.

Layer 1

Physical World

  • Assets
  • Inventory
  • Equipment
  • Operations

Physical assets, inventory and equipment used across day-to-day operations.

Layer 2

Connected Technology

  • RFID
  • IoT
  • Data

RFID and IoT connect physical objects with digital business information.

Layer 3

Digital Intelligence

  • Visibility
  • Automation
  • Analytics

Connected information supports visibility, workflow automation and analytics.

Intelligent Operations, Connected

Six core capabilities connect physical operations with business information.

Asset Tracking

Support tracking and visibility of assets.

Smart Inventory

Improve visibility across inventory operations.

Supply Chain Visibility

Connect information across relevant supply-chain activities.

Workflow Automation

Support automation of business workflows.

Predictive Maintenance

Use connected information to support predictive maintenance.

Data Analytics

Turn collected information into useful business insights.

Know Where Your Assets Are

Asset tracking supports visibility of assets by connecting them to digital identifiers, so asset information stays available inside the business platform. The visualization is conceptual and shows no real asset locations.

  • Asset Records
  • Asset Identification
  • Asset Status
  • Asset Visibility
