Company launches“kit” to optimize logistics in 2025 with more productive docks

With e-commerce on the rise and people increasingly immediate in their purchases, overcoming bottlenecks to drain production has been a challenge for industries and logistics warehouses throughout Brazil.

One of the most common challenges is the lack of effectiveness of the docks. According to data from the National Transport Confederation (CNT), trucks spend up to 40% more time stopped at the docks (Docklands) time that could be used to streamline deliveries and positively impact the entire production chain. Already the Dom Cabral Foundation points out that, only in 2024, the logistics cost in Brazil reached 12.7% of GDP, above the global average of 10%.

For Marcelo Lonzetti, RTLS technology specialist and director of ztrax, the Brazilian market lagged behind in terms of innovation when compared to its global peers in the industry. Therefore, it advocates the use of technology to reverse this picture:

“Knowing which dock is operating with higher or lower productivity is a simple task with the support of the right technology. It takes real-time dashboards and performance flags to achieve the agility charged worldwide.”

The company recently launched a new product called the” Productive“Doca kit, which combines real-time tracking technology of people and assets with operational adjustments in the docks & key areas where trucks carry out loading and unloading.The goal is to organize the flow of incoming and outgoing cargo, reducing downtime and increasing efficiency.

In initial tests reported by the company, the system has already pointed out a reduction of up to 30% in the waiting time in some operations.Lonzetti reinforces the importance of innovation:

“Dock delays, lack of visibility in deliveries and saturated infrastructure are old industry acquaintances. You need to change this game with tools such as RTLS (Real-Time Location Systems). Solutions thus bring concrete data for decision making, without emotions or thoughts (only based on real information.”
