Renord Spa dealer

Wide Area Vehicle Identification - BLE Items


Introduction

Renord Spa is one of the most important dealers in Northern Italy, boasts seven locations and is celebrating 50th this year years of activity. A success story crowned by the inauguration of additional commercial and office areas which, for example, boasts state-of-the-art spaces, even recently built, with a total of about 15,000 square meters of area dedicated in particular to the Renault and Dacia brands, in addition to an extremely service structured dedicated to the world of companies and commercial vehicles, including fitted ones.

The request

A company of this size boasts an extremely large fleet of vehicles and therefore the inevitable need for logistical management at the height. From the perspective that distinguishes the customer or the continuous modernization of procedures required a system capable of minimizing the management times of the vehicles in storage. In summary, it was necessary to identify a way to quickly and safely find the exact one location of the vehicles within the vast dealership and the many different spaces, exhibition, workshop, parking etc ...

The solution

By integrating through the partnership with the the company's software house a discreet network but extremely efficient and widespread of BLE readers (Bluetooth Low Energy) Renord has in each moment the ability to visualize on a internal map the exact location as well view vehicle movements. This is traced through tags inserted inside the cone identifier. So no visible device further to those already used and none new procedure for personnel. This can instead take advantage to immediately identify the position of the vehicle which, for various needs, it must be tracked and moved. More these "Needs" can also be derived directly from the collected data. So for example a Tag that signals the presence in a parking area of a vehicle for longer than that expected can receive a set alert. Not only therefore immediate identification but also data and statistics, difficult to obtain from non-automated management.

The results

An important project that demonstrates the effectiveness and the potential of BLE systems, the new frontier of automatic identification. System that allows identification in large areas concentric, through a simple logic A> B> C signaling the passage within the zones covered by BLE readers, devices with a range of coverage up to 30mt. With such benefits and a well thought out design of the positioning of the reader, in order to cover the passage points strategic, the system is efficient and robust, operational 24 hours a day with reduced maintenance almost zero. The partnership with the Software House, in in this case the leader of the Terranova market Software that translated the data received from TagItalia devices in the desired data used by the end customer. A design template certainly successful and repeatable on other realities of the world automotive parking but more in general in management e Items traceability.
