Next Generation Wireless Communications (NGWC) for Logistics Applications

True Global Asset In-Transit Visibility (ITV) for the Department of Defense

In a large-scale effort to augment and bolster nodal visibility provided by fixed, active-RFID infrastructure, ARINC now provides expansive NGWC technology for true ITV of globally deployed Department of Defense (DoD) logistics assets.

NGWC tracks and monitors mission-critical, high-value logistics assets anywhere in the world—tracing location continuously and monitoring the condition of shipments en route—giving logisticians real-time supply chain visibility like never before.

A customizable suite of electronic sensors—bound by secure wireless networks—monitors the condition, location, and security of assets in the supply chain, while the device management center (DMC) collects and disseminates actionable information—location, sensor state, security posture—from the fielded devices directly to the logisticians via secure XML data feeds, e-mail, and SMS.

Ideal for tracking high-value, military containerized and palletized logistics shipments, NGWC provides uniquely versatile and reliable supply chain management capabilities, encompassing the ideal solution for the complex logistical challenges of the DoD—true global asset In-Transit Visibility.
