Multi-modal positioning. One independent advisor.

Hardware-agnostic means the radio technology is chosen for your environment, accuracy budget, and total cost of ownership — not by what's on a vendor's price book.

Location Analytics

Beyond X & Y coordinates.

Most RTLS vendors stop at a moving dot on a map. TRACIO treats position events as raw telemetry — then engineers the analytics, rules, and integration layer that converts them into the OEE uplift, throughput improvement, or compliance signal your CFO actually measures.

Location analytics dashboard with KPIs and flow trend
01

Telemetry → structured event streams

TDoA, AoA, RSSI, and dwell events normalised across vendors and time-aligned with SAP, Oracle, Epic, Cerner, Manhattan, Blue Yonder, ServiceNow, and bespoke MES platforms.

02

Operational KPIs mapped to your P&L

OEE, first-pass yield, takt time, bed turn, length-of-stay, dock dwell, perfect-order rate, SLA compliance — mapped to the metrics your board already reviews.

03

Closed-loop automation & alerting

Rules engines triggering ServiceNow incidents, CMMS work orders, nurse-call escalations, andon, and MES interlocks. Location data driving production, not just observation.

04

Digital twin & predictive analytics

Spatial event data structured for digital-twin platforms (Azure Digital Twins, Siemens Xcelerator, NVIDIA Omniverse). Simulation, what-if modelling, and ML-driven prediction on real movement history.

Capabilities

Full-lifecycle delivery, board-room to shop floor.

From the executive business case to the quarterly performance audit twelve months after go-live.

01 · STRATEGY

Business case & roadmap

Discovery, use-case prioritisation, KPI tree construction, NPV / IRR / payback modelling, and multi-year roadmap aligned to corporate strategy.

02 · TECH SELECTION

Vendor-neutral evaluation

Comparative analysis across UWB, BLE 5.x AoA, RAIN RFID, active RFID, ultrasound, Wi-Fi RTT, SLAM, and vision — scored against your environment, accuracy budget, and TCO.

03 · PROCUREMENT

RFP, sourcing & contract review

RFP design with structured evaluation matrices, vendor shortlisting, demo orchestration, commercial fairness benchmarking, and MSA / SOW review pre-sign.

04 · ARCHITECTURE

Solution & site design

RF predictive modelling, anchor and reader placement, ISA-95 / Purdue Model network design, OT/IT segmentation aligned to IEC 62443, integration mapping across MES, EMR, WMS, CMMS, ServiceNow.

05 · VALIDATION

PoC & pilot delivery

Hypothesis-driven proofs-of-concept and in-situ pilots with measurable go / no-go criteria. Pilots that mirror production load, not the marketing one.

06 · DEPLOYMENT

Programme management

Multi-site, multi-region rollout governance with clear gating, PMO reporting, change management, UAT scripting, and as-built documentation packs.

07 · ANALYTICS

Data, BI & digital twin

Event stream processing, data lake integration, Power BI / Tableau / Qlik dashboarding, and digital-twin enablement for simulation and prediction.

08 · ADOPTION

Training & change management

Role-based curricula for operators, biomed engineers, line leads, and admins. Super-user programmes and stakeholder engagement that drives sustained adoption.

09 · ASSURANCE

Audit & project recovery

Quarterly performance audits, dispute resolution, expert-witness engagements, and rapid triage of stalled or failing rollouts.

Outcomes, not features

Engagements scoped against the numbers your board reviews.

Every project is anchored to a measurable target — OEE points, inventory accuracy, bed turn time, dock dwell minutes, or annual cost out.

Smart Hospital

Locate any pump. Under 30 seconds.

BLE 5.x AoA and UWB designed around clinical workflow and Joint Commission compliance — mobile medical equipment, infusion pumps, telemetry, ED bed state, hand-hygiene attestation. Integrated with Epic, Cerner, Meditech, and your CMMS.

Healthcare use cases
Industry 4.0

WIP visibility. 65% → 99%+.

Item-level RAIN RFID at cells and dock doors, UWB tool control on the line, IATF 16949-compliant traceability, MES integration with SAP MII, Rockwell FactoryTalk, Siemens Opcenter, or your bespoke platform.

Manufacturing use cases
Connected Logistics

Dock-door reads. Payback in months.

RAIN RFID at every dock door, BLE on trailers, yard truck location, and integration with Manhattan, Blue Yonder, Körber, SAP EWM, or your TMS for live inbound / outbound reconciliation and perfect-order lift.

Logistics use cases
Programme Recovery

Stalled rollout. Triaged in days.

Assessment, recovery plan, dedicated PMO or guidance to your team, and unified stakeholder communication. Two decades of complex IT and OT project rescue experience applied to the specifics of RTLS and RFID.

Anonymised by request. Named references available under NDA.

"The difference with TRACIO is that the technical architecture and the commercial case come from the same brain. We went from business case to live pilot in under sixty days."
Programme Director, Operations TechnologyGlobal Tier-1 manufacturer · WIP & tool traceability
"They walked into a stalled UWB rollout and had a recovery plan inside two weeks. Live in ninety days. We finally have something we can show the board."
CIOFortune 500 industrial group · programme recovery
"We needed a vendor-neutral read on our RFP. TRACIO scored fourteen vendors against our actual environment in six weeks. The contract we eventually signed was 22% lower than the original frontrunner's price."
Head of ProcurementEuropean 3PL · dock & yard programme
"Clinical workflow consulting at the depth we needed — they understood Epic integration as well as the BLE radio. Our biomed team stopped losing hours hunting for infusion pumps."
VP, Clinical EngineeringUS 600-bed academic medical centre
"The ROI model TRACIO built for our infant-security programme was the difference between approval and another year of pilot purgatory. CFO signed without redlines."
Chief Nursing OfficerAPAC private hospital chain
"As a vendor we hired TRACIO for EU market entry — they introduced us to four serious enterprise prospects in three months. Two became customers. Worth every cent."
