Case Study: European Automotive Manufacturer achieves fewer production delays and reduced component damage with Tive, Inc.'s supply chain visibility solution

European Automotive Manufacturer - Customer Case Study

European Automotive Manufacturer faced recurring damage and delay issues with inbound components—sensitive parts like engines were suffering rough handling and late deliveries that could cascade into costly production stoppages. To gain visibility and predict disruptions, the company deployed Tive, Inc.'s supply chain visibility solution, using Tive trackers to monitor in-transit shock, tilt, and vibration as well as shipment progress in real time.

By attaching Tive trackers to returnable packaging, the manufacturer receives real-time alerts from Tive, Inc. when shipments experience harmful shock levels, prolonged stops, or are likely to miss ETAs; the system pinpoints the time and location of incidents so suppliers and the manufacturer can address root causes. This visibility has reduced production delays and waste, enabled schedule adjustments or expedited parts to avoid plant disruptions, and improved overall supply chain predictability and customer experience.
