Real-time GPS tracking system for the delivery of pellet boilers

Library of Challenges

Short description: The challenge owner is a leading manufacturer of wood pellet boilers (clean, fully-automated heating). For optimising “last mile” delivery, they want to set up a real-time tracking system to know the exact position of the boiler at any time in the delivery process to alert partners and customers.

Market potential: Converting 18 million fossil heating heating systems to renewables is expected to generate billions of investments. Digitisation services for this industry offers many future business opportunities.

Timing: Due to the booming market, the sooner, the better!

Desired result: Both end customers (often homeowners) and installers need to be present onsite in the moment of boiler delivery. Therefore, they need to know the status of delivery of the boiler (real-time mapping). The new solution will be embedded in the overall logistics processes of the challenge owner.

Information on challenge owner: Mid-Cap (250-3,000 staff).

Market presence of challenge owner: Global presence.
