Construction 4.0 - Material tracking

On behalf of the SPAETER Group, SCAUT and its partner swiss1mobile have developed an innovative concept for tracking individual deliveries - so-called loading units - and thus tracking the material flow from the factory to the customer.

After a detailed analysis of the current process steps from production to delivery and unloading at the construction site, various scenarios were developed and different technology solutions were evaluated.

Together with the SPAETER Group, the advantages of the individual variants were discussed and compared during several workshops. The final solution provides for container labels with printed bar code and QR code, which can be scanned with the SPAETER app on the smartphone. The information is integrated directly into the internal software packages and thus always enables the overview to be maintained between various process steps. For customers, this results in the added value that all information can be retrieved with one click.

Testimonial Dr. Lukas Rohner, Head of Construction division at SPAETER Group: "The concept developed together with SCAUT enables us to create real added value for our customers while also optimizing our own processes. The solution evaluated uses modern technology and communication solutions without the need to procure costly hardware. This is crucial in an industry where the actual sales product offers few differentiation options and thus price is often the focus."

Testimonial Stefan Christen, Head of Mobile Solutions at swiss1mobile: "With the simplicity of this solution, SPAETER Group will achieve a rapid optimization of its processes, especially in the area of tracking products, and create real added value for its customers. It is also guaranteed that at any time the application can be expanded and optimized. We thank you for the professional cooperation and look forward to further exciting projects with SCAUT and SPAETER Group."
