General Motors has played a pivotal role in the global auto industry for more than 100 years. From the first Buick horseless carriages to technological marvels like the Chevrolet Bolt to the evolution of a world with zero crashes, zero emissions, and zero congestion, its products and innovations have always excelled at putting the world on wheels. Thousands of parts are manufactured for each vehicle using tens of thousands of vendor tools – tools that have been manually tracked by GM’s more than 3,000 suppliers at their own production facilities. Each tool has a lifecycle of about 20 years. Managing this massive tooling database is an ominous task for both GM and its suppliers. Using RFID and Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) technology, GM is transforming the tracking of its assets. Inventories that used to take days and weeks can now be accomplished in hours or minutes without the installation of extensive infrastructure. Learn how GM and its suppliers are benefiting from this ground-breaking system.
