North – South Transportation
Challenges In Logistics
North – South road transportation (~1,700 km) is the backbone of our customers' supply chains in Vietnam.
Operational Route
~1,700 km
Multiple handover points and rest stops throughout the shipping journey.
Multiple handover points and rest stops
Increases the risk of cargo tampering or unauthorized unloading.
Traditional GPS only shows location
Does not indicate what is happening to the cargo during transit.
Need for monitoring and operational compliance
Customers need logistics partners to ensure cargo integrity.
Operational Requirement
Customers need the ability to ensure cargo integrity throughout the entire journey
Including the ability to monitor and comply operationally throughout the North – South road transportation process.
Operational Monitoring
Increase cargo control capabilities throughout the entire transportation process.

Capabilities
Track truck location and route history in real time.
Useful for optimizing fleet management and delivery confirmation.
Provides vehicle movement tracking, reducing the risk of lost vehicles.
MONITORING FOCUS
Track transport vehicles and vehicle movement transit journeys
Limitations
Unable to monitor cargo directly
GPS cannot confirm whether a container has been opened or tampered with.
Reactive rather than proactive
Incidents such as damage or route deviations are usually only discovered after delivery.
Dependent on drivers
Relies on driver honesty and compliance, creating risks when collusion or human error occurs.
Limited for high-value cargo
For shipments such as textiles, fabric rolls, or production materials, basic GPS does not provide the necessary protection level.
