A company required an efficient and transparent solution to manage and track returnable assets such as tools, equipment, containers, or transport units – without relying on complex third-party products. The existing solution was heavily paper-based, unclear, and prone to errors. In addition, there was no real-time overview of location, usage status, and returns of the returnable assets. The objective was a modern, fully integrated application with mobile capabilities.
