ATLANTA and DENVER – NCR Corporation (NYSE: NCR) and Ubisense Ltd. today announced an agreement to jointly market an asset management and analysis solution for the manufacturing marketplace.
Under the agreement, the companies are offering Ubisense’s precise real-time location system (RTLS) with NCR’s TransitionWorks automatic identification and data collection (AIDC) software. The combination of these products enables manufacturers to manage assets throughout their entire facility, improving operational efficiency, allowing real-time audit and delivering cost savings.
The joint solution enables the management of assets such as production tooling and material-handling equipment throughout a facility, instantaneously recording events and transmitting actionable operational messages based on business rules configured by the customer.
The first deployment of the Ubisense-NCR solution provides real-time asset visibility on 15 production lines for a large automotive parts manufacturer. The solution tracks more than 2,500 individual high-value assets on each production line to a precision of 1 foot and generates the appropriate updates and alerts when machines or assets change locations within or outside a facility.
