en.Wedoany.com Reported - Aerospace logistics company B&H Worldwide has introduced artificial intelligence tire scanning technology into its New Zealand operations, integrating it into its proprietary FirstTRAC platform, achieving a 60% reduction in inventory processing time. This digital initiative aims to address supply chain complexity and compliance requirements, replacing traditional manual data entry methods.
The system utilizes a mobile scanning SDK, combining computer vision and optical character recognition technologies to directly capture barcode and serial number data from tire sidewalls. Employees can use smartphones or tablets as scanning devices, reducing the risk of human error and accelerating reporting speed.
Operational data shows inventory processing time has decreased from an average of 4 minutes per unit to 1 minute, error rates have fallen by 80-90%, data accuracy exceeds 99%, and processing capacity per hour has increased by approximately 30%.
Lee Hedges, Manager of B&H Worldwide's New Zealand branch, stated: "This technology enhances our accuracy, speed, and traceability in managing high-value inventory. Customers gain better visibility and faster reporting, strengthening their confidence in the integrity of their assets."
This pilot project, based on the company's internal improvement plan, has already delivered benefits for partners, including a global tire manufacturer, ensuring complete inventory integrity for used tire movements and establishing a digital audit trail to streamline compliance processes.
The successful implementation in New Zealand provides a template for global rollout, with Melbourne, Australia planned as the next site. This strategy aligns with B&H Worldwide's sustainability goals by reducing paper usage and optimizing logistics processes to lower its carbon footprint.
